Pujanza Cisma 2020
Bodegas PujanzaComplex subtle aromas on the nose, with great balance and concentrated aromas. The fruit seems riper than in the other Pujanza wines because it has a much more Mediterranean character due to the location of the vineyard in a small valley. The taste is elegant, long, balanced and full, with a very good acidity that is vital for the development in the bottle.

About the winemaker

Carlos started the winery with the land, the soil and the historical, unique values of the Rioja region as a starting point. That is why he has chosen to work only with tempranillo and viura.
