Sourced from 2.6ha of vineyards dating back to 1911 in Leza, at the foot of the Sierra de Toloño in Rioja Alavesa. Up to 25 different varities and biotypes are present, including Tempranillo, Garnacha, Graciano, Benedicto, Viura, Mazuelo, Garro and Maturana Tinta. Vinified in batches with native yeasts, the wine the wine was matured for 19 months in French oak barrels of various sizes, and for a further month in oak casks after the final blending. Intense, deep nose of cherries, black plum and blackberry with sage, oregano and thyme playing in the background. The fruit is cradled by velvety tannins, so pretty and finely structured, and a gentle, comforting earthiness. A wine with great sense of place and deft use of oak. Gentle notes of petrichor and sage on the finish.
