Bodegas Vinicola Real was founded in 1989 by Miguel Ángel Rodríguez in Albelda de Iregua, a town with a remarkable history, whose roots go back beyond the medieval era.
Vinícola Real was built near the chapel of Santa Catalina, the only part that remains of the Monastery of San Martín de Albelda founded in the year 924 AD, the Monastery was destroyed due to the detachment of the Salagona rock in 1683.
Vinícola Real was born with the vocation of being a small production winery specializing in high quality wines and "vinos de pago".
The idea is to produce "great wines" from a single terroir, with a differentiated method of production and aging, and with a strong personality (the new style of La Rioja).
Vina Los Valles is a certified organic red wine made from 100% Tempranillo grapes from old vines.
The wine has a small oak influence to ensure this wine is all about the juicy Tempranillo fruit !
The colour is a mid-toned, bright cherry red with aromas of fresh, red fruits and spices.
On the palate, the wine is balanced, spicy, and elegant, with flavours of cherry, blackberry, and blueberry.
It has a bright finish with juicy acidity and a long finish.
Rioja is, of course very food-friendly and pairs with a lot of foods -our favourite being the Sunday roast !
