The wine is made primarily using Tempranillo grapes sourced from the winery's own vineyards. The vines are grown in soil that is rich in clay and limestone. The wine is aged in French and American oak barrels, which gives it a complex and spicy flavor profile. On the nose, the wine has aromas of dark fruit, vanilla, and tobacco, while the palate is rich and full-bodied, with flavors of black cherry, blackberry, and cedar. It is a classic entry-level Rioja wine for everyday drinking or pairing with food.
