ORGANIC(UNCERTIFIED)/ VEGAN

Made mostly from Tempranillo with a touch of Graciano and aged in French oak. On the palate, it is well-balanced with a nice tannic structure & fruit concentration. Strawberry, dark cherries, liquorice. It has a long & pleasant finish with the oak flavours well integrated with the fruit.

Rai from Bodegas las Orcas used to compete in triathlons at an international level, but now puts all his energy into producing and ageing some very elegant Rioja. He is the 3rd generation of winemakers in his family, dating back to 1900. The Rioja Alavesa is sheltered from the hotter conditions lower down the Ebro valley by the Cantabrian Mountains, enabling Rai to make wines with higher acidity, lower alcohol and more freshness.
