Vintage
2020 has been a 'difficult' year. The weather adversaties, such as the hail in June, have been joined this year by the uncertainty generated by the covid-19 outbreak. Overall, the 2020 campaign had a reduced harvest in some places of Rioja Alavesa, due to hail and rain during flowering time, but the grapes developed in an exceptional quality and healthy way. There are good expectations to obtain aromatic wines, with great freshness and very positive organoleptic conditions.
Winemaking
Grapes were destemmed and fermented in stainless steel tanks for 10-12 days with temperatures between 26-28°C. Once malolactic fermentation is complete, the wine is placed in American and French oak barrels for 13-14 months.
