The wine region of Rioja Alavesa

Northwest sub-region of DOCa Rioja in the Basque Country (Álava), on altitude slopes sheltered to the north by the Sierra de Cantabria. Tempranillo signature red king: fine and fresh with signature notes of red cherry, raspberry, plum, sweet vanilla (American oak aging), tobacco and spice hint, fine tannins and elegant palate — airy style, among the finest of Rioja. Clay-limestone soils. Traditional carbonic maceration for young wines (cosechero), gourmand.

Star of great Spanish reds: signature Tempranillo, elegant and complex, with notes of ripe cherry, plum, leather, vanilla and tobacco from American oak ageing. Classification by age: fruity Joven, balanced Crianza, ample Reserva, deep, silky Gran Reserva (5 years, 2 in barrel). Some fresh Viura whites and generous rosés. Spain's first DOCa (1991), 3 sub-zones (Alta, Alavesa, Oriental), 93.

The word of the wine: Pruine

A thin, fluffy film that covers the surface of the grape. It makes the berry impermeable and contains the indigenous yeasts necessary for the fermentation of the must.
