Bodega Baigorri, founded in 1996, is located in Samaniego, one of the most interesting cities of Rioja Alavesa. The modern winery, with the Sierra Cantabria behind it, opens its splendid windows onto the surrounding vineyards. Built 105 meters underground, the winery uses the most rigorous methods of handling the grapes by hand and by gravity to avoid the use of pumps or mechanical methods that could damage the grapes or the wine.
The B70 is made with 100% Tempranillo grapes, harvested from 70-year-old vines positioned on the first slopes that rise in the mountains, on soils characterized by great mineral and organic richness. The grapes are selected and harvested by hand. Fermentation takes place in open barrels. The wine is then aged in new French oak barrels for 22 months.
This is a wine that fully expresses the complexity of the Rioja terroir. It is an elegant, round, and vigorous wine that maintains its varietal and fruity expression despite the long wood aging.
On the nose, the wine is energetic with intense aromas of ripe red fruit and delicate mineral notes that complete the aromatic profile. In the mouth, it is round, with firm but soft tannins. The wood influence is perfectly integrated and the finish is very long and persistent. It’s the perfect wine for Iberico ham or Chorizo, but it pairs well with all red meats.
