Oxer Bastegieta Ahari 2022

Ahari 2022 reveals the authentic expression of the Laguardia, Leza, Navaridas and Elvillar vineyards, reflecting the identity of the limestone soils of Rioja Alavesa. On the nose, it displays a captivating aromatic profile, with ripe red fruits, delicate floral notes and a light touch of spices, suggesting black pepper and Mediterranean herbs. The presence of Viura in the blend gives it freshness and a citrus nuance.

On the palate, it stands out for its silky texture and succulence, with fine, well-integrated tannins. The fermentation in oak vats and the 10-month aging provide structure and complexity, without masking the purity of the fruit. The finish is dry, balanced and persistent, leaving a pleasant sensation of elegance and depth.

With production limited to 6,800 bottles, Ahari 2022 is a wine that combines tradition and modernity, maintaining the essence of the region's carbonic maceration reds, but with a more refined and serious character.
