The Vicalanda Booking, a red wine created in 1994 that began a new style of reserve rioja, the maximum expression of the "terroir". The Vicalanda Reserve is a wine pioneer "wines of high expression", crafted from a selection of thes best grapes from our own vineyards.

After de-stemming and crushing took place the maceration and the alcoholic fermentation of three weeks, at a temperature of 28 ºC. The wine made the malolactic fermentation in barrels, where it is subsequently aged for 14 months. We use French Allier oak barrels, new in a minimum of 50%. At this time, the wine is trasegó several times to clean it and natural way to avoid post-treatments. The wine has an aging minimum in bottle 24 months (Reservation).VINEYARD (VITICULTURE)We select the best grapes of our plots Cuervo 4, Vicuana and Zaco, of the D. O. Ca. Rioja.
