THE STORY

About this wine

A perfumed, fresh single-vineyard Rioja red from Carlos Sánchez's personal project: 70% Tempranillo co-fermented with 30% Viura from the old-vine El Saúco parcel in Labastida, Rioja Alavesa, with fine tannins, mineral tension, and restrained oak.

A limited-production single-vineyard Rioja from Carlos Sánchez’s personal project, made from the El Saúco parcel in Labastida, Rioja Alavesa. The 2023 is a field blend of old-vine Tempranillo and Viura, fermented with partial whole clusters and matured in oak.

Worth knowing

A white grape in a red Rioja is the unusual move here. This is 70% Tempranillo co-fermented with 30% Viura, both from the same old parcel, and the bottling is tiny — the 2023 sits somewhere between roughly 1,270 and 2,393 bottles.

Blend

  • Tempranillo 70%

CHARACTERISTICS AND TASTING TIPS OF THE Carlos Sánchez 1er 'Los Montes Bellos del Buradón' 2023

Tasting

Color: Bright red in the glass, medium in depth.
Nose: Roses first, then fresh red berries, with floral notes over chalky minerality, subtle spice, and just a touch of oak.
Palate: Vibrant and balanced, medium- to full-bodied. Fine tannins hold a light grip, ripeness stays restrained, and the fresh acidity is well integrated — mineral tension carries it all to a long, scented, refreshing finish.

Pairs Beautifully With

A must try with mushroom-based dishes
A must try with grilled vegetables
