Savia del Sol Crianza 2010

100% Tempranillo. Bottled by Senyorio de Libano who owns Bodegas Castillo de Sajazarra, which is located around six miles to the west of Haro, in the most northern part of La Rioja Alta. At the end of the 1960s, the Libano family bought the Sajazarra castle in order to rebuild it and make its home there. In its dungeons there were several very ancient parts related to wine, such as wooden tanks and casks, presses, etc. As only they could have done, they started making their own wine inside the castle, first for their own consumption and later as a company, continuing the castle's centuries-old tradition of winemaking. A new winery was created in 1973 in the gardens of the castle and in a singularly beautiful setting. The castle, gardens, winery, and vineyards form one unit, making what reporters call a "true chateau," completed by the wall and the Roman bridge.
