Carefully selected vineyards in the Alavesa sub-region of Rioja. Winemaking Grapes were harvested at peak ripeness. The three varieties, Garnacha, Tempranillo, and Viura were placed in the vat and allowed several hours of cold maceration. Following this, the vat was gravity drained, without mechanical pressing, to produce a juice which was then fermented at a controlled temperature of 16¼°C for 20-25 days. In this way, the all-important primary aromas are maintained. The resulting wine was kept for a time at the winery before release.
Overall, the 2020 vintage had a reduced harvest in some places of Rioja Alavesa, due to hail and rain during flowering time, but the grapes developed in exceptional quality and healthy way, with good expectations to obtain aromatic wines, with great freshness and very positive organoleptic conditions. In Vina Real, the harvest began on the 15th of September with white and red grapes from the lower area of Rioja Alvaesa (Laserna, Oyon), and ended on the 9th of October with grapes from the highest areas (El Villar d Alava – Labastida).
Attractive salmon pink in color with a rose-pink rim. This is an aromatic wine, the nose revealing floral aromas along with peach, apricot, and background notes of strawberry and citrus. Delicious, balanced palate, rounded with a slightly acidic aftertaste and a long, fruit-driven finish. An elegant wine that can be enjoyed at any time, without food, or with all kinds of fish/shellfish, salads, and fine pasta dishes.
