Producer/Region : Muerza Blanco Bodegas Ugalde
Established in 1882 by Felipe Ugalde, one of the founding members of the Rioja D.O.C. Bodegas Ugalde it is one of the few wineries which made wine during the Spanish Civil War (1936 -1938). Nestled between the North shore of the Ebro River and the Eastern-most skirts of the Sierra de Cantabria. The Ugalde team looked back on history and were inspired by Ugalde’s vision of 1882: Bringing Rioja terroir, as the new team understands it, into each bottle of Bodegas Ugalde.
Vineyard:
With vineyards planted in very diverse altitudes and types of soils –clayey, chalky, alluvial and also some special salty soils with a marked minerality, the team has focused on conveying what these different terroirs express. At the same time, they took a giant step forward by researching the potential of grape varieties, as well as the combination of vineyards sited in very different terroirs of the property, and experimenting with unconventional Rioja blends.
