In the glass

  1. Colour

    Slightly translucent garnet red

  2. Nose

    Violet blossoms, rose petals and jasmine meet ripe, crisp dark fruits. Fresh herbs, warm bread and roasted almonds complement the floral, intense bouquet.

  3. Palate

    Elegant, refined and sensual with noticeable, defining tannins and a clear, balanced acidity. Juicy, fleshy fruit of red and blue berries intertwines with undergrowth, cinnamon bark, sloe and subtle oak.

  4. Character

    A fresh, precise, almost tonic Rioja with great tension and very good length. The biodynamic approach and the clay-loam terroir of the Sierra Cantabria are reflected in the crystalline fruit and vibrant acidity.

  5. Pairing

    Paella de Verduras, truffled polenta with glazed vegetables and salsiccia, bavette with Béarnaise sauce and celeriac purée

  6. Notes

    Traditional field blend including white grape varieties, spontaneous fermentation and maturation in French barriques. Organic farming since 2001, certified organic since 2015, with biodynamic methods, following Masanobu Fukuoka’s “do-nothing” philosophy, on bush vines around 50 years old nestled amongst centuries-old olive trees.

Tasting note


Colour & appearance
A slightly translucent garnet red, reflecting the elegance of the vintage and the gentle extraction.
Nose
Fresh and penetrating: violet blossoms and rose petals intertwine with jasmine and dark, crisp fruits. Underpinned by fresh herbs, warm bread and a subtle note of cooked almonds.
Palate
Elegant, refined and sensual. The perceptible, fine tannins carry a juicy, fleshy fruit of red and blue berries. Nuances of undergrowth, cinnamon bark and sloe add complexity, whilst the bright acidity lends the wine an almost tonic freshness.
Finish
Very good length with sustained tension and a precise, fruit-driven finish.
Terroir & origin
From the Valdemarra vineyard in Moreda (Rioja Alavesa), situated at 480 metres altitude. The stony clay-limestone soil and the windswept slopes of the Sierra Cantabria shape this wine. Maisulan cultivates 15 hectares here between Elvillar, Viñaspre and Moreda, where centuries-old olive trees stand amongst the vines.
Grape variety & vinification
A traditional field blend of Tempranillo with small proportions of Carignan (Mazuela), Macabeu (Viura), Grenache Blanc and Malvasia. The vines are trained as bush vines (goblet) in the vineyard. Following hand harvesting and sorting, spontaneous fermentation took place at a maximum of 25 °C, with maturation in French barriques.
Food recommendations
Ideal with Paella de Verduras, truffled polenta with glazed vegetables and salsiccia or bavette with Béarnaise sauce and celeriac purée.
Special features
A field blend including white grape varieties in the old Rioja tradition – now rare in the region. The biodynamic approach of Eva Fernández and Luis Ruiz de Viñaspre, inspired by Masanobu Fukuoka’s “do-nothing farming”, gives this wine its distinctive vitality and crystalline clarity.
