Where it comes from
This label originates from vineyards located in Quintana del Pidio, in the province of Burgos, in the heart of Castile and León. The north-western Spanish region offers ideal climatic and soil conditions to enhance the qualities of the native varieties.

How it is produced
The winemaking process begins with meticulous fermentation in cement tanks, a key technical choice to preserve the purity of the fruit and maintain temperature control. Subsequently, the wine undergoes a period of ageing on the lees lasting six to eight months. This stage takes place in French oak barrels, allowing the wine to enrich its texture and give greater volume to the final sip. The evolution in wood consolidates a defined profile, while also ensuring excellent longevity.
