AselectionofvineyardsplantedwithGarnachaTintaatsome of our town’s highest altitudes to provide maximum finesse. The Tempranillo vines are also planted on fresher slopes located in our village and in Rioja Alavesa.Generally speaking, the vineyards are around 25 years old with average yields of 42 Hls/Ha.
100% manual, parcel by parcel. Harvesting takes place early in the morning to maintain the cooler temperatures that prevail during the night.
The stocks are removed and the grapes are pumped into the tanks, a process involving less crushing that allows us to regulate the extraction of colour and aromas. As these grapes are smaller in size with harder skins and they come in fresh and cool, we try to apply a skin-contact fermentation to extract aromas without too much colour. We then proceed with the bleeding process, separately, for the Garnacha tinta and Tempranillo. This phase enables us to highlight the grapes’ primary aromas that give this rosé a very refined bouquet.
The resulting pale-coloured must is then combined and fermented at low temperatures (16o-18oC) in stainless-steel tanks. The wine is bottled during the months of December and January following the harvest.
Proud of its pale pink colour, slides down in style with fresh fruits of the forest, wild strawberries and a depth of redcurrants, violets and herbs. Reveals the elegance, freshness and finesse acquired by the Garnacha grape when planted at a high altitude. Superb pernonality.
