Maestresala "Joven" Rioja is a fresh fruited style of Rioja with zero oak influence made from Tempranillo and a small percentage of Viura (white grape), through carbonic maceration. This method is traditional in Rioja Alavesa and allows to obtain youthful aromatic wines with a pleasant palate. The whole bunches ferment in open concrete tanks in controlled temperature. Corazón de Uva “heart grape” comes from plot of ancient vines.

 

Tasting Note

 

  • Appearance: Clear, pale intensity in a pale purple colour.

  • Palate: Dry, juicy, low tannins with an incredible freshness sensation on the palate. Easy to drink.
