LOCATION
From the top of Sierra de Toloño, the view reaches the wide valley of La Rioja, with its carpet of vineyards along the menadering course of the Ebro River. The landscape is exciting. At the other end, to the South, appear the snowy peaks of La Demanda. This is a magical region, a natural way since thousands of years ago, a place protected from the cold North winds by our great mountain.
Right at the foot of it, laying on its Mediterranean slopes, among thickets and oak trees, there is the vineyard that makes a dream come true: to make a wine that expresses the unique character of its corner of La Rioja, so high, so pure.
