Oxer has always wanted to make wines in Rioja Alavesa and in 2005 he went to Laguardia convinced of the uniqueness of that area. Convinced of the uniqueness, Oxer invests every penny in buying old parcels. The vineyards in La Rioja Alavesa are organically worked in regenerative agriculture. Man and mule work the land with great care and respect for the old vineyards. Both the name and the labeling are carried out in an expected detail, from the meaning to the symbolism, expressing it perfectly with its labels that try to express its universe. All the meticulous work in the vineyards and cellar ends in elegant and fresh wines. SUZZANE - Perfectly expresses the characteristics that Garnacha offers in La Rioja soils. It also reflects the respect there is for the old vineyards in the region.                   It takes its name from a song by Leonard Cohen, an ode to women, hence the elegance in this wine. Elaboration: Vineyard of 3 ha. planted in 1903 in Cárdenas ( Rioja Alta ) at an altitude of 580 meters. Clay-ferrous soils with just over 10% stone, giving us low yields, around 2000 Kg. per ha. The different plots that make up this vineyard give us an extra complexity to the wine. Winemaking: Spontaneous fermentation with its own yeasts in used and open 500-liter French oak barrels, in amphoras and in concrete eggs. Malolactic fermentation in used barrels and concrete. Aged for 13 months in used French oak barrels. Variety: 100% Grenache.
