General Information
Exopto 2024 es un ensamblaje de garnacha, tempranillo y graciano, tres de las uvas dominantes de la D.O.Ca. Rioja, procedentes de viñedos de entre 30 y 80 años de edad, plantados en suelos de cantos rodados, grava y arena, en Laguardia.
Para obtener el primero de sus vinos, que es este tinto que el Club te acerca, en Bodegas Exopto, casa fundada por el bordelés Tom Puyaubert, seleccionaron manualmente, en cajas de 15 kilos, las mejores uvas, cuya fermentación tuvo lugar en depósitos de acero inoxidable y cemento a una temperatura de 22 ºC. Tras macerar durante 7 días, el vino fue sometido a una crianza de 6 meses en depósitos de hormigón, tinas de madera y barricas usadas de roble francés.
Exopto 2024 (en cosechas anteriores denominado Bozeto de Exopto) es un vino placentero, fácil de beber, que supone la puerta de entrada al universo de esta firma de Rioja Alavesa. Su explosión de aromas afrutados con toques minerales, hacen de él la opción ideal para armonizar con embutidos, tapas, platos de verdura, carnes a la brasa o pasta fresca con salsa de tomate.
Tasting notes
A la vista luce un profundo y brillante tono rubí.
La nariz está dominada por aromas de frambuesa y grosella seguidos por notas minerales y recuerdos florales.
De cuerpo medio en boca, presenta una agradable acidez que contrasta con la dulzura aportada por los frutos rojos ya anticipados en nariz. Elegante, afrutado y largo final.
The winery
Winery
At the beginning of the year 2000, the Bordelais Tom Puyaubert settled in La Rioja to develop his activity as a representative of a famous French cooperage. Daily contact with the best Spanish winemakers and his knowledge of the Rioja wine culture and its enviable vineyards encouraged him, in 2003, to embark on his own project. Bodegas Exopto takes its name from the Latin verb meaning "to strongly desire, to hope with great enthusiasm." It is precisely this passionate spirit that guides his steps and the creation of an interesting range of white and red wines that aim to be a faithful expression of La Rioja and its terroir.
Puyaubert's winery is based in Laguardia, the capital of Rioja Alavesa, and its facilities give birth to wines full of color, fruit, and freshness, with a fine and subtle presence of the noblest woods. All of Bodegas Exopto's creations originate from three of the great varieties that make up the classic Rioja blend: tempranillo, garnacha, and graciano. These come from 15 micro-plots of vineyards, aged between 30 and 90 years, covering a total surface area of 10 hectares, and are distributed between the village of Abalos (Rioja Alta) and the slopes of Monte Yerga in the southern part of the region.
In the winery, the aging of Exopto wines stands out for the exclusive use of French oak barrels of different grain types and toasting levels to achieve greater oxygenation, preserve the fruit, or contribute complexity, minerality, structure, or balance.
