Who makes it?

At Bodegas Lar de Paula, located in the heart of the Rioja Alavesa, in the town of Elvillar de Álava,Fernando Meruelo transforms the most delicate Tempranillo grapes in magnificent and modern Rioja wines.

Protected to the north by the Sierra de Cantabria and
bordering to the south with the fertile Ebro valley, the benign climate of this region guarantees the supply of quality fruits for some of the highest vineyards in La Rioja. Austere in style, in keeping with the surroundings, the winery itself was built with
one purpose in mind: highlight the best features of
the Tempranillo grape through a process in which excellence is the main concern.

How is it made?

100% tempranillo. After careful selection, the tempreanillo grape is destemmed, crushed and the must is premacerated at 16 ºC between 2 and 3
days. Then it ferments in stainless steel tanks at a
temperature between 28 and 30 ºC between 10 and 12 days.

The wine is aged in French and American oak for 12 months and it then completes its aging in the bottle for at least 4 months before launching into the market

What does it taste like?

Explosion of primary aromas with complex and persistent nuances of berries and toasted notes. Medium-bodied, with polished but good intensity tannins. Balanced palate, with a fresh acidity.
