A pure, fruity, vibrant young Joven wine. There’s depth of flavour, all very fruity with plum and blueberry notes, but as it is un-oaked you get a very pure flavour.
Tasting Notes:
An elegant red wine with hints of liquorice and dark fruit both on the nose and the palate. Well-structured and easy to drink due to a low level of tannins.

Nestled between the North shore of the Ebro River and the Eastern-most skirts of the Sierra de Cantabria, the Ugalde team looked back on history and were inspired by Ugalde’s vision of 1882: Bringing Rioja terroir, as the new team understands it, into each bottle of Bodegas Ugalde.
