About the Producer

Spanish wine has always played an important part in the Boutinot portfolio. As a supplier Boutinot represent over 50 wineries who provide wines of great quality, value and interest from all corners of the country. For over 15 years they have worked in partnership with a handful of these wineries on ‘own label’ projects, combining the expertise of the winemakers and Boutinot's passion for Spanish wines to bring to the shelves honest and eminently drinkable wines which offer good value for money.

Vineyard and Winery

The fruit is harvested in early October from vineyards in Rioja Alta, around the town of Haro. Vines on average 15-20 years old. Fermentation in stainless steel tanks at 25-30° C with twice daily pumpovers. After 12 days fermentation on the skins the wine is gently pressed and racked to stainless steel tanks for malolactic fermentation. The wine is then racked to a mixture of American and French oak barrels for 6-8 months maturation.
