Vintage
The 2023 harvest had a vegetative cycle marked by drought, with a drier autumn and winter, which the vineyard endured thanks to the altitude at which the vineyards in Rioja Alavesa are located. At the end of summer, temperatures were high, but more moderate than in other areas of the appellation, along with cooler nights that made the grapes ripen correctly.After the September rains, the harvest was characterized by sunny days with unusually high temperatures for this time of year, which meant a quick harvest of the estates with the most ripening progress, and a wait for the perfect ripening of our vineyards with higher altitudes.The white wines of the 2023 vintage stand out for their freshness and moderate alcohol content, and as for the reds, we have obtained grapes with splendid phenolic maturity for the elaboration of elegant red wines, with tannins that provide structure and complexity, but maintaining freshness, thanks to the fruit balance and the good acidities of our area.

Winemaking
75% Viura and 25% Malvasia. After crushing and de-stemming the grapes to free the must, they are placed in stainless steel deposits to undergo cold maceration for 24 hours. The grapes are then pressed to further separate the must from the skins, and transferred to new French and American oak barrels for slow fermentation over 25 days.

Aging
This wine spends approximately 100 days in new French and American oak barrels on the lees and is periodically stirred to intensify its aromas that, together with the support of the wood, give the wine a balanced complexity and elegance.
