Vineyards:
It is a unique vineyard in the area of Baños de Ebro next to the river Ebro called Prefiloxérico . As its name suggests, this vineyard predates the appearance of Phylloxera . It is a Tempranillo vineyard of great value, more than 170 years old planted in bush on a loose and sandy alluvial soil, which is why they were not destroyed by Phylloxera

Elaboration:
Harvest is made at night by hand in boxes of 12 kg. The harvest is only carried out by selected and qualified winery staff, who work all year round with us selecting the bunches in each vine in the vineyard. The Fermentation is made in stainless steel tanks with daily pumps up. The aging is made in French oak barrels for the second year giving it a refining time in the bottle before leaving the cellar.
