Vinification: Selection of parcels from older vineyards of +30 years, located in Rioja Alta. Low yields of 50hl/ha on average. Short skin-contact maceration of 2-4 hours. Gentle pressing. Low temperature alcoholic fermentation (15º-18ºC) in stainless steel tanks. The wine is later stabilised using cold treatment to prevent malolactic fermentation. This results in greater freshness and maintains the wine’s natural acidity. Bottling takes place in December or January following the harvest.
Tasting Notes: Pale colour with greenish highlights. Delicate, floral bouquet with a touch of apples and a hint of herbs. Fresh with pleasant vivacity in the mouth where the smooth character or the Viura grape comes through to perfection.
Serve at: 6-8ºC.
Aging potential: This wine does not require any ageing in bottle and should, in fact, be consumed the younger the better so as to enjoy its freshness and vivacity that are at their best during the first 2 years.
