  By the glass. Blending 55% Tempranillo white, 35% Viura, 8% Maturana white, 2% Malvasia.14.0% ABV. Rioja Alta area. This wine spends twenty months in barrels in contact with its own lees and then is refined in the bottle for sixteen more months. Surprises begin on the nose with aromas of quince fruit, notes of ripe citrus, that sweetness of ripe pineapple and an infusion of sweet spices and flowers. On the palate it is a medium-bodied wine, with freshness and amplitude. Decent length. Tasty finish. Small winery that deserves a follow-up.
  
  Por copas. 55% Tempranillo blanco, 35% Viura, 8% Maturana blanca, 2% Malvasía
  14.0% de volumen alcohólico. Zona de la Rioja Alta. Pasan veinte meses en barricas en contacto con sus lías y posteriormente se afinan en botella durante dieciséis meses más. Las sorpresas comienzan en nariz con aromas a fruta de membrillo, notas a cítricos maduros, el dulzor de la piña madura y una infusión de especias dulces y flores. En boca es un vino de cuerpo medio, con frescura y amplitud. Decente longitud. Final sabroso. Pequeña bodega que merece un seguimiento.

  Rich cherries, smoked vanilla, sweet star anise and leather on the nose. Good depth in the medium-bodied palate. The freshness permeated the entire palate. Fine tannins. Finish has a touch of cocoa and licorice. Drink now and for the next 3 years.
