A historic first vintage for sparkling Rioja as before 2017 Riojas werent allowed to be sparkling. Harvested at optimal aromatic ripeness.

White Garnacha from Clavijo and white Maturana from our Las Arcas estate in Nalda. Fermentation with native yeasts is carried out twice a week during the first three months using the batonnage technique, followed by static aging on the fermentation lees.
