COUPAGE
100% Tempranillo. It is made directly in 225-litre French oak barrels for 14 days at low temperatures, with 4-5 daily punchdowns, where it undergoes, first, alcoholic fermentation, and then malolactic fermentation, seeking aromatic complexity. Finally, it remains aged in new French oak barrels for 9 months.
Underwater maturation for 9 months at 24 metres depth on the Alicante coast of the Mediterranean Sea.
Tasting
On the nose: very powerful, the essence of the wine from Laguardia, Alava, is appreciated. The black stewed fruits, notes of liquorice, tobacco and spicy touches stand out. The ageing in barrels is much more marked after the underwater maturation in the form of vanilla and roasted coffee.
On the palate: we perceive a great abundance of ripe black and red fruits, almost stewed. A perfectly integrated acidity, which results in a high volume in the mouth that is very well structured. In short: fruity, powerful and mature without losing the freshness of a young wine.

The only winery in the world that has formulated a fully standardized oenological project based on underwater maturation.
Our wines go through a process called “underwater maturation,” which has been standardized by us and registered along with all the elements that characterize it. Today, our process is completely confidential, and the only thing we can reveal is that no one else does anything like it.
