MacRobert & Canals is a small family-owned winery that started through the integration of Bryan MacRobert a South African winemaker and grape grower, into the Canals family, who have been living in Rioja for over forty years. They are an atypical project in Rioja differentiated by their roots, experience and winemaking philosophy. We prioritise the vineyard over the cellar and they strive to produce high quality terroir transparent wines that show the diversity of the soils, vineyards, varieties and climates that exist within the region.
This wine is made from vineyards in Laguardia in Rioja Alavesa above 520m on the south-facing slopes of the Sierra Cantabria. Tempranillo grapes ripen easily and retain good acidity and freshness due to the climate, orientation and limestone soils. Aged in big barrels tha preserve the fruit aromas of the Tempranillo.
