    LEGACY

    In La Rioja, we cultivate Tempranillo vineyards on former grazing land. A remarkable place  where a handful of shepherds once decided to abandon their trade and dedicate themselves to laying the foundations of traditional winegrowing in the area, resulting in wines which reflect the vitality of this exceptional enclave.

    TERROIR Soil The predominant soils of Labastida belong to the traditional calcareous clay soils of Rioja Alavesa. The terraced vineyards grow on hillsides with very poor, brownish-grey soils  which developed from Miocene marl, limestone, and sand. In the parcels closest to the Ebro River, former fluvial meanders offer soils with an abundance of pebbles and sandy soils with low water holding capacity.

    Weather conditions The 2020 vintage was a rainy year, especially during the growth season and the ripening  period, with rainfall inaugurating the harvest. In terms of temperature, this was an unusual year. The winter and early spring were warm followed by a mild summer and ripening  period with lower-than-average minimum temperatures.
