THE WINE
The new vintage is now a blend of 85% Tempranillo, 10% Garnacha, and 5% Viura, sourced from over 100-year-old vines in Ábalos—one of Rioja’s standout terroirs. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel after destemming, followed by 12 months of aging split between concrete and 500-litre neutral oak barrels (no vanilla here). The result is a delicious vibrant blackberry flavour with lifted aromatics, beautifully balanced structure, and finely tuned tannins, all leading to a lingering finish.
THE PEOPLE
Bodegas Abeica is a family-run winery in Ábalos, Rioja Alta, currently overseen by the fourth generation, with the fifth actively contributing. In the 1990s, the winery expanded by sourcing grapes from neighboring properties. However, siblings Isabel, Ricardo, Pachi, and Raúl chose to refocus on cultivating their own vineyards, emphasizing a true family project. Their vineyards, situated between 450 and 590 meters in elevation and protected by the Sonsierra mountain range, are predominantly clay-calcareous soils. Harvesting is a family affair, with the extended family handpicking grapes for the gravity-fed winery. The winemaking process typically involves whole-bunch fermentation under carbonic maceration, adopting a hands-off approach that allows nature to guide the wine's development. This method results in wines that are fresh and expressive, offering a lighter, terroir-focused interpretation of Rioja.
THE PLACE
Ábalos, a village in the heart of Rioja Alta, is renowned for producing some of the most expressive and elegant wines in the region. Nestled at the foot of the Sierra de Cantabria, its vineyards benefit from a unique microclimate and clay-limestone soils that lend structure and finesse to the wines. Tempranillo thrives here, often blended with small amounts of Garnacha, Graciano, or even white varieties like Viura, resulting in reds with depth, freshness, and balance.
