Following meticulous sorting on optical selection tables, only the perfectly ripe grapes were fermented using indigenous yeasts. Alcoholic fermentation took place in a tank and lasted 21 days, followed by malolactic conversion. In the following January, the finest wines were selected to age in American oak barrels, averaging 4.5 years. After four years in barrel and traditional rackings -by hand and candlelight every six months, the final blend was bottled and received four years' bottle-ageing.

Winery

The Tempranillo grapes are carefully selected from vineyards in Villalba, Briñas and Rodezno. A small proportion of Graciano comes from the Montecillo vineyard in Fuenmayor, which adds backbone to the blend. La Rioja Alta is committed to respecting and protecting the environment. In the vineyard, treatments are limited, investments have been made into clean energy sources, and water is reused. Insect shelters have been installed in vineyards, promoting environmentally friendly plant health defence while increasing the biodiversity in the vineyard. The grapes are hand-harvested at optimal ripeness.
