Arizcuren Solomazuelo 2024

A rarity in La Rioja, a 100% Mazuelo that is difficult to grow and with a tendency to disappear, but that in Arizcuren they rescue to show their benefits. How do you taste this silky, fruity and special red. Vinification in concrete tanks, malolactic in barrels and aging for 12 months first in wooden barrels and then another 12 months in concrete tanks. An exceptional wine.

When we speak with Javier Arizcuren, current owner of the Arizcuren project, we realize the tremendous respect he has for his family and his environment. It is the last generation of a family dedicated to wine, which has cared for vineyards since the end of the 19th century in the Sierra de Yecla, and works with determination to recover historical memory and thus preserve that viticultural heritage for which it feels responsible. For this, it has land and vineyards, between 30 and 120 years old, at altitudes between 530 and 800 meters at sea level, in which it has managed to rescue minority varieties, including some that have already disappeared in La Rioja, such as Tinta Velasco. or Calagraño.
