Bodega Baigorri is located in Rioja Alavesa, the northernmost part of the Rioja wine region, about 600 meters above sea level. The Rioja vineyard is one of the largest in Europe and benefits from a peculiar climate influenced by the Atlantic and the Mediterranean, which, by providing mild temperatures and sufficient rainfall, create ideal conditions for viticulture. The great majority of the red wines are obtained from Tempranillo, Grenache, Mazuelo, and Graciano grapes grown on these clayey-calcareous soils. White wines are made from Macabeu or Malvasia.

The grapes come from over 60-year-old vines planted on clayey-calcareous, stony, and very poor soil in several micro-lots of less than one hectare located in the Samaniego region, in Rioja Alavesa. All the vineyards are worked according to the principles of sustainable viticulture, with manual work.

In the glass, the wine shows an impenetrable purple color and a ruby-colored nail. The nose reveals complex and fascinating aromas of blackberries with subtle floral notes of dried lavender and rose petals. On the palate, the wine is intense, warm, and powerful yet endowed with enormous finesse and elegance. The tannins are perfectly ripe and the lively acidity balances the juicy fruit flavors. Perfect with grilled and roast red meat and game stews.
