The 2015 Viña Leizaola El Sacramento comes from a historic vineyard in Rioja Alavesa and is one of the region’s most distinctive terroir wines. Old vines, limestone-rich soils, and a meticulous winemaking process result in a Rioja with impressive finesse, concentration, and elegance. The excellent 2015 vintage produced perfectly ripe grapes with an exceptional balance of fruit, freshness, and structure.
After aging in French oak barrels, the wine develops complex aromatic layers, refined tannins, and a long, mineral finish. The combination of terroir and craftsmanship results in a Rioja that displays great character both when young and after years of bottle aging.
The wine opens with aromas of black cherries, red plums, cassis, violets, cedar, tobacco, cocoa, Mediterranean herbs, and delicate spices. On the palate, it is powerful and elegant, with silky-smooth tannins, lively acidity, and a long, mineral finish.
Serve at 16–18°C and decant the wine about one hour in advance. Delicious with grilled beef, lamb, game, Iberian pork, mushrooms, and aged Manchego.
El Sacramento comes from a historic vineyard in Rioja Alavesa, where old vines grow in limestone-rich soils. Thanks to low yields, hand-harvesting, and aging in French oak barrels, the result is a wine with finesse, complexity, and exceptional aging potential.
