Rioja is named after the river rio Oja, a tributary to the Ebro river. Earliest evidence of viticulture dates back to 873, though there is strong belief that the first vines were planted during the Roman era. Soils are generally clay rich in iron and chalk, but some areas are prominent alluvial and others sandstone. The climate is warm continental having long cold winters and short hot summers with big temperature variation between day and night. The cold nights slow down the maturation and prolongs the ripening cycle of the grapes, giving more time to develop aroma complexity as well as retaining high natural acidity.

Deep ruby red colour. Complex aromas reminiscent of black fruit, black cherries, toast, vanilla, cloves with underlying notes of tobacco and earth.

Full-bodied, with intense aromas of rich black berry fruit combine with toast, tobacco and autumn leaves. Refreshing acidity and mature velvety tannins will gie this wine long life. The finish is long and lingeering. Enjoy with grilled steak, braised meats, roasts, hearty stews and aged cheeses.
