This family business is run by the third generation of vinegrowers in the region. 45% of their vines were planted 80 years ago, with the new winery and technology. A Tempranillo dominated blend from its highly rated single-regional range named “Juan de Alzate”, made from 45-yeard-old vines, fermented in stainless steel vats at a controlled temperature, matured 18 months in oak casks, and 6 months in the bottle; showing a good combination of modern and traditional style.

The Jaun de Alzate Crianza is in the more classical range, with a discrete nose of fresh red fruit and a pleasant palate with moderate, fine tannins. Easy to drink. 88 points – Luis Gutierrez
