Wine maker notes VINIFICATION: Made from grapes chosen one cluster at a time from our vines at El Fresno, vineyard in Laguardia, Rioja Alavesa. Fermentation of destemmed grapes takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 28 ºC to 30ºC. Macerated for 3 weeks with frequent pumpovers to ensure good colour extraction and smooth, round tannins. AGEING: Aged for 24 months in Allier oak barrels and 36 months in bottle.
Producer Bodegas Larchago is a family company founded in 1968 by the successors of Bodegas Chavarri in Lapuebla de Labarca (Alava). Since 1882, four generations have tended their vineyards and made their own wines here. The winery was the first to be registered as a wine bottler in the Rioja Alavesa sub-area. GRUPO bodegas LARCHAGO combines tradition with modernity in both its wines and its facilities, maintaining a family atmosphere with the cutting-edge style introduced by the new generations. Quality factors: -Estate-owned vineyards: If there is something that sets this group apart, it is the way its wines are controlled from the start, from the way the vineyards are tended and the selective grape harvest to its painstaking winemaking practices. -Location: Short but intense winters with a sun exposure that is neither excessive nor scarce. What gives quality to the vineyards —and consequently the wines— is the location of the former, at altitudes between 400 and 600 metres above sea level. -Tradition and experience: Each wine is different and requires the winery’s experience to know how to react to changes in the weather and adverse conditions. These are the factors on which the quality of each vintage depends.
