This wine represents the Pérez Cuevas family's commitment to organic, and their drive to increase sustainability throughout their vineyards.

Ripe plum and dark cherry fruit, shavings of dark chocolate and a twist of spice with gentle tannins, meaning the focus is in the fruit and letting the Tempranillo shine. A full-flavoured modern style of Rioja.

Perfect with roast chicken and pork, or grilled salmon
