About Bodegas Amézola de la Mora, established in the mid-19th Century, is one of Rioja’s oldest and finest wine estates. Restored in the early 1980s by brothers Iñigo and Javier Amézola, this estate is highly unusual (for Rioja) in that it owns all of its vines. The estate encompasses 60 ha of mature vines overlooking the confluence of the Najerilla and Ebro Rivers in the heart of Rioja Alta.
Following the tragic death of their winemaker father, Iñigo’s daughters María and Cristina have guided the property, capably assisted by winemaking consultant Georges Pauli, who served previously as head enologist at Château Gruaud-Larose and other fine French estates. At the time the sisters took over the winery they were the youngest wine producers in Rioja.
Despite their youth, their enthusiasm and high diligence to produce wines of the highest quality have earned them huge respect amongst their peers and wine lovers. The prestigious and influential wine critic Robert M. Parker, recently classified Rioja’s Iñigo Amézola and Viña Amézola as “outstanding”.

Description: A blend of 85% Tempranillo, 10% Mazuelo, and 5% Graciano, matured in oak for 22 months and an additional 14 months in the bottle. A compelling red that melts in the mouth with black cherry, damson jam, raspberry, brambles, plum pie, oak, toasted coconut, vanilla, and festive spices. Structured, yet incredibly smooth.

ABV: 14%

Awards and Press: Awarded 92 points by Master of Wine Tim Atkin
