UKAN 2020

Type: Red Wine
Grape(s): Tempranillo with a touch of Graciano
Wine Region: Rioja Alavesa, Spain

Tasting Notes: The result of a meticulous vineyard selection that discovered three old Tempranillo vineyards in Laguardia. Each plot is elaborated separately to enhance their uniqueness, and then blended into a single elegant and well-structured wine. UKAN is a complex, full-bodied and very drinkable wine with a lot of ageing potential showcasing exceptional fruit purity and refreshing chalky minerality. 16 months in 225L French oak

The Vintage: A winter warmer than usual with high temperatures and a rainy early spring boosted the vegetative growth in the vineyard. The summer began moderately cold and wet, but then passed with normal temperatures and rainfall for the summer season. A further drop in the thermometer in September resulted in a long ripening period, which, after the harvest, resulted in balanced musts with great aromatic intensity and freshness.
