Certified Organic, Practicing Biodynamic. 100% Cariñena. A single terraced vineyard of 60 year-old bush vines, on clay-limestone soils at 650m of elevation. The parcel has deeply limey soils and is mostly north-facing, so there’s very little intense direct heat from the sun. Hand-harvested. Whole-cluster fermentation via carbonic maceration, then the wine is pressed off and aged in a 500L neutral French oak barrel. Unfined, unfiltered, zero SO2 added. An elegant, herbaceous, alluring version of Carignan—through a Basque, high-altitude lens.
