VALENCISO

A single wine. A Rioja winery * Valenciso, founded in 1998 by Luis Valentin and Carmen Enciso, specializes in crafting a classically structured Reserva wine. Located in Ollauri, near Haro, their vineyards benefit from a cool, Atlantic-influenced climate at altitudes of 400-600m. They practice sustainable viticulture without irrigation or fining and use concrete tanks for vinification, prioritizing wine longevity and freshness. This commitment to quality has earned them respect among Rioja enthusiasts and wine critics, with praise for blending traditional and modern Rioja styles. "Valenciso is one of the most reliable medium-size producers from Rioja, combining modernity and tradition." — Luis Gutiérrez
