Product info
Eva and Oscar's classic white. This wine has been aged for more than 3 years before being launched on the market.
It pays homage to the traditional long-lasting whites of the Rioja. Both complex and original.
Vinification
The grapes come from old vines between Fonzaleche and Sajazarra. 50% of the harvest is fermented in whole bunches.
Very smooth pressing in a vertical press.
The wine is then aged for some 42 months in 500-liter casks with bâtonnage (daily, then weekly, except the last year, without any).
Storage potential
Drink as from: 2025
Best moment: 2025-2032
Until: 2035
To serve
Best decant before serving in a large Burgundy-glass.
Trial analysis
Intense golden colour. Nicely spicy on the nose, with sherry-notes - complex and mysterious.
Still strong and lively on the palate. Nice evolution in the glass, with a hint of saltiness in the (very long) finish.

Wine estate

Alegre-Valgañón is a new estate which is part of the Rioja'n'roll movement: young winemakers who want to bring new life into this very classic appellation, with a new approach.
In Sajazarra, a small village of some 100 inhabitants at the Western tip of Rioja Alta, near the Cantabrica range and the Ebro river, Oscar and Eva work only with organic vines and make wine like their grandparents used to.
This sub-zone has the most Atlantic climate of the Rioja.
The couple started from scratch, which gave them the opportunity to work in a regenerative way. The produce their own organic manure and regard their vines as parts of a larger environment, trees and plants. This is why they show such respect for their terroir and the life therein.

Description

Malvasía was the first white wine Abel Mendoza produced, back in 1992, when Malvasía Riojana had almost disappeared from Rioja. This is not the aromatic Malvasía Cándida, but Malvasía Riojana, a more austere and rather neutral variety, also known as Alarije or Subirat Parent. After more than 30 years of experience with this grape, Abel Mendoza produces a white Rioja with freshness, tension and a saline undertone. Production of around 2,100 bottles.

Description

El Calado del Espino 2023 is the third vintage of this white wine by José Gil. The wine is made from 100% Viura, sourced from two plots: one in San Vicente de la Sonsierra and a smaller part from Labastida. The vines are around 50 and 80 years old respectively and are planted on limestone-rich soils. The soils are very shallow, with the rock close to the surface. This gives the wine its taut, mineral character. Only 1,780 individually numbered bottles were produced.
