Baron de Ley Rioja Reserva (750ml)

Barón de Ley is a winery located in Spain’s most celebrated wine region, Rioja a privileged terroir to farm and craft premium quality wines.Housed in a centuries-old monastery, where the monks made wine more than 500 years ago, Barón de Ley was founded in 1985 as a ground-breaking project in DOCa Rioja: a vineyard-focused winery inspired by the Médoc châteaux.  It models its approach on the French concept of “château” where the grapes are sourced from the property’s own vineyards rather than sourcing the grapes from contract growers as was typical of this area.  They own more than 600 hectares of vineyard in different Rioja subregions, which guarantee top-quality wines with personality and where they can capitalise on the different locations, micro-climates, soils and grape varieties Rioja has to offer.

Barón de Ley takes manual harvest to new heights through a combination of hand-harvesting and hand-sorting of 1.8 million kg of grape every vintage, an impressive milestone in Rioja.
