La Nieta draws from Rioja's prized shallow, poor soils and a superior microclimate to produce a serious expression of Tempranillo. The Eguren family's flagship from their smallest vineyard, where constraint breeds character.
Winemaker Notes
The Eguren family strove to produce a world class wine from the miniscule Finca La Nieta, a vineyard with shallower, poorer soils, and a superior microclimate than the neighboring El Puntido vineyard. The product is Viñedos de Páganos’ flagship wine, La Nieta. The Eguren family wanted to use this vineyard to display the subtlety and elegance that Tempranillo can represent, and they have achieved this with La Nieta.
