Monte Gatún
Traditional grape varieties, garnacha, mazuelo and tempranillo from Quel at an altitude of between 530 and 600 meters with manual harvest. Aged in French oak barrels and concrete tanks.
solomazuelo
Mazuelo is a grape variety that has historically formed part of the great wines of Rioja, being largely responsible for its longevity.
"There are more and more interesting mazuelos in Spain. This one from Javier Arizcuren in Rioja Baja confirms the good line of the previous vintage."
- Amaya Cervera, Spanish Wine Lover -
sologarnacha
Garnacha was the main grape variety in Rioja Baja until 30 years ago. Arizcuren sologarnacha aims to highlight the benefits of this variety on the northern slopes of the Sierra de Yerga.
"This is what Garnacha from Rioja Baja should be about."
- Luis Gutiérrez Santo Domigo, The Wine Advocate -

The wine obtained after the passage through the vat is much more rounded and finished than those aged in wooden barrels, showing itself as the purest reflection of what the variety is.
"There are more and more interesting mazuelos in Spain. This one from Javier Arizcuren in Rioja Baja confirms the good line of the previous vintage."

With this wine I have the opportunity to carry out a very didactic work to raise awareness of the characteristics of the variety and highlight its value in Rioja in order to avoid the tendency to reduce the cultivated surface area.

Finca el Foro
A vineyard that represents like few others the diversity that characterized the cultivation of the vine. Six grape varieties sharing a space of just 0.7 hectares at an altitude of 600 meters on a slope of the Sierra de Yerga that show us how this varietal diversity translates into a differential character that we find in this wine.
Valdetrillo
Ungrafted vineyard, of undetermined age, which shows the scars of the evolution of viticulture in the 20th century.
Barranco del Prado
You can always hope for something special from a vineyard which has experienced 3 centuries. That is the case with Barranco del Prado, pre-phylloxera ungrafted vines over 120 years’ old and planted at an altitude of almost 800 metres. A real gem that reflects a long-gone form of viticulture which allows us to achieve the highest expression of purity and a reflection of the terroir of the Sierra de Yerga.
