HORIZONTE DE ΕΧΟΡΤΟ Horizonte Tinto is the first wine that we made in 2003 ... Its base is Tempranillo , Rioja's principal grape variety , but made in a different style , highlighting our clear intention to create wines which are more modern , intense , highly - coloured and with just the right amount of oak - To be perfectly frank , we have to admit that at the beginning there was only going to be one red wine : Exopto ... but after our first vintage , we thought we could do it better or at least differently - hence the name ' horizonte ' horizon ) ... suggesting that EXOPTO might appear .

VINTAGE GRAPES VARIETIES Tempranillo ( 80 % ) , Garnacha ( 10 % ) , Graciano ( 10 % ) The 2019 vintage did not present major weather setbacks . Overall , it was a dry vintage with little rainfall that allowed it to enjoy an excellent phytosanitary status throughout the cycle . These conditions imposed a low vigor vegetative development on the vines , resulting in clusters of small size and low weight . The 2019 wines are structured and balanced with a very good aromatic expression .
