Only native varieties: 70% Viura, 25%, Tempranillo Blanco and 5% Garnacha Blanca and Malvasía, from vineyards located around Haro (limestone soils) and the Alto Najerilla (clay-ferrous soils). Generally old bush vines located in the highest areas.

Light pressing, without needing to work in an inert atmosphere, some work in the open, and about 50% of stems in the pressing. The objective being a more Burgundian style that highlights the qualities of the land, over the varietal expression.

Minimum contribution of SO2, spontaneous fermentation. All alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel at a constant temperature of 16ºC. Then, a part of the volume spends five months in French oak (not roasted, steam bending) with its lees, and the remaining volume is also aged with its lees in a concrete tank.
