Characteristics:

The wine is made from the grape Malvasía, from vineyards in Leza planted above 580m high that hug the Sierra Cantabria in Rioja Alavesa. The cool climate preserves the acidity and promotes later ripening to allow the grapes to reach their full phenolic maturity. it is a skin contact white wine that is aged in a cement egg.
