Colour

Colour of strawberry jam of medium density with a hint of violet at the edges.

AROMA:

It is a remarkably perfumed wine, with a subtle complexity: violets, white pepper and wild strawberries.

TASTE:

A wine which is longer than it is broad with a tremendous aftertaste and persistant finish. A wine which has moved away from the Mediterranean and gets us closer to the Atlantic.

Ideal to combine with spicy , like india cuisine , grilled vegetables and barbecue .

12 km from Haro, nestled between the Sierra de Cantabria and Sierra de la Demanda mountain ranges, Finca La Emperatriz is located in the northwestern end of the Rioja Qualified Designation of Origin, at 570 m above sea level in one of the highest plateaus in the Rioja Alta. The soil of Finca La Emperatriz is unique in La Rioja. A poor, extremely hard soil, which provides the wines with a distinctive elegance and minerality and great aging potential. Although Finca La Emperatriz is a 101-hectare vineyard, it has been divided into a number of plots. Each of them has specific characteristics depending on the variety planted, the rootstock, the age of the vines, the conduction system, etc.. Eduardo and Victor Hernáiz decided to apply viticulture and oenology that were customized to each of the plots in accordance with their characteristics, in order to obtain wines with different personalities.
