Bodegas Las Orcas is a classic styled and earth driven Rioja from the Alavesa region. Heavily reliant on old vine Tempranillo, these wines are dry farmed and fermented with native yeasts. All of the wines are bottled unfined and unfiltered and are matured in older
oak, about half French and half American. This is a 3rd generation winery.
