Producers
Two family growers, two villages in Rioja, both working old vines one parcel at a time. Neither is a name you'll find on a supermarket shelf — which is rather the point.
-
Labastida · Rioja AlavesaÁrea Pequeña
Two brothers, a family's old vines and a village beneath the Sierra de Toloño. Single-parcel Rioja Alavesa with nothing to hide.
-
Cordovín · Alto Najerilla, RiojaBodegas Iván del Río
Old-vine Garnacha and Viura from a village in the Alto Najerilla, and a modern take on Cordovín's centuries-old clarete.
Two villages, an hour apart
Same region, very different Rioja.
-
Labastida
Rioja Alavesa · Álava, Basque Country
A fortified medieval village under the limestone wall of the Sierra de Toloño. Chalky, sandy soils, Tempranillo with Garnacha and Viura planted among it, and vineyards up to 640 metres.
-
Cordovín
Alto Najerilla · La Rioja
A small village in a cool, green valley near San Millán de la Cogolla, with an Atlantic climate, iron-rich clay, an old cellar district dug into the hillside and a wine all its own: clarete.
