About the Vineyard:
Throughout its 100-year history, winemaking techniques have evolved because Bodegas Riojanas combine the local winemaking tradition with the state-of-the-art winemaking techniques. Innovation goes hand in hand with respect for tradition. Therefore we have incorporated the most advanced winemaking techniques that allow for adaptation to current market trends.
Bodegas Riojanas controls more than 100 hectares. From the best vineyards in Cenicero, San Vicente de la Sonsierra and nearby towns. The quintessential grape in Rioja is Tempranillo, but Bodegas Riojanas also has one of the largest areas dedicated to Mazuelo and Graciano within the denomination, varieties that provide greater personality to their wines.
The different plots of vineyards are situated on clay-limestone of Miocene origin, soils suitable for producing the highest quality.

Tasting Notes:
Intense red cherry colour, with subtle violet touches. Medium high coat, clean and bright. On the nose, high aromatic intensity, reminding tored fruit, liquorice and flowers, subly combined with toasted wood from the ageing. With a nice touch in the mouth, good volume, gourmand, nice tanin and médium persistence. It is a very interesting wine to enjoy on any occasion.
