Vineyard

The Graciano grapes for this wine are cultivated in the vineyards of Bodegas Exopto, located in the Rioja region.

Vinification

This wine is made from 100% Graciano grapes, a varietal known for its aromatic complexity and structure. The vinification includes a careful selection of grapes from Bodegas Exopto's vineyards in the Rioja region. After harvest, the grapes undergo a controlled fermentation process, followed by 18 months of aging in French oak barrels. This period of aging in wooden barrels contributes to the development of the wine's complex flavors and texture.
