Wine from Tierra

Filter

Our precious wines are grown in thirty hectares facing the slopes of the Toloño mountain with the greatest care of our wine growers from Labastida and San Vicente.

We believe that the key to get the best results from the vineyard is the right choice of soil and variety plus their orientation altogether.

Our home, the place where new dreams and great wines are born.

It is a building consisting of four houses and a backyard in the old Jewish neighbourhood in Labastida. Underground there is a curious network of four different caves joined together, dating from 1400-1500 where our wines rest peacefully in 500 oak-casks with the constant temperature and humidity naturally maintained the whole year round.

Our wines are the fruit of work well-done, the mirror of our life and the place where they come from… the land..

At Tierra, when drinking one of our wines, we want you to be taken back to where it comes from, its landscape, its peoples and, above all, its vineyards. That’s why we put all our effort into preserving the maximum quality of our raw materials, the vines and their fruits.

It is the purest example of tempranillo grapes from Rioja Alavesa. Coming from a vineyard over a hundred years old with an extremely low production. You can taste a high concentration of ripe fruit, well-bodied, with a final touch of toffee and lime soil plus a perfect acidity which makes this wine fresh and very tempting.

VINEYARD From the Cuba Negra Vineyard in southern Labastida, the El Belisario bottling comes from Tempranillo vines planted in 1910.

ALCOHOL 14.5%

PROCESS Fermented naturally in oak foudre. Malolactic fermentation and aging occur in 100% new French oak barriques over two years.

TASTING Along with its brilliant garnet color, aromas of cherries, dried plums, black pepper, and savory mushroom leap from the glass. The palate is fresh and concentrated with mixed red and black fruit, chocolate, menthol, and coffee. Displays a surprisingly elegant nature. Pair with game, red meat and dark chocolate.

Review:

One of those wines that makes you belief in the special magic of old vines, El Belisario hails from La Greña, parcel planted on limestone rich soils in 1910. Aged in older French barrels, it's a focused, nuanced, wonderfully expressive Tempranillo with raspberry, pomegranate and red cherry fruit, filigree tannins, energetic acidity and sweet, caressing oak spices.
