Established in the late 19th century, this family-owned Bodega in Villabuena village sources fruit from its own vineyards in Rioja Alavesa. Founded by Francisco Javier Solano y Eulate, the estate adopted Bordeaux-inspired ageing techniques. Today, under Juan Pablo De Simón and Milans del Bosch, great-grandsons of Francisco, the Bodega blends tradition with modern winemaking methods.
When it first hits the palate, it is robust yet velvety. Ample, with red berry and scrubland flavours, but with a fresh and refined structure. A lingering aftertaste with creamy tannins balanced by good and full acidity and a tinge of minerality.
