Bodega Bideona is a winery in Rioja, Spain run by two Masters of Wine, one of whom is New Zealander Sam Harrop.

Made from a high quality, low-yielding Tempranillo filed  blend from hillside vines (laderas) on limestone soils.

We decide the type and length of ageing individually for each vintage, using a combination of stainless steel, concrete, and used oak barriques and foudres for a total alternative ageing of 2-3 years.

Pure and precise aromas of cherries, red berries and thyme. Medium bodied, with good length and weight on the palate, showing beautiful balance between the fresh acidity, fruit concentration, and firm but fine-grained tannins. A versatile, very satisfying drinking wine and a great example of cooler-climate Tempranillo from Rioja Alavesa.
