History
Terra Organica strive to create wines which truly reflect the land they come from, ensuring respect for nature and preservation of the environment. This wine is produced by Navarrsotillo, a family-run winery located in Calahorra, La Rioja, Spain, founded in 1995. They focus all of their efforts on organic, quality wines and a commitment to caring for the earth.
Regional Information
Rioja Baja has a dry, warm climate, due to Mediterranean influence. At 450m (average) altitude, Rioja is a fertile land depression in the Ebro river valley, which flows through the region from west to east, enclosed by two mountain ranges. These mountains create natural barriers and have a tempering effect both from the cold and rainy fronts from the Bay of Biscay and from the warm and dry winds from the central Spanish plateau and the Mediterranean.

Vinification Details
Terra Organica wines are made from organic grapes. This means no weed-killers, synthetic fertilisers or insecticides. After gentle pressing of the grapes, alcoholic fermentation takes place under controlled temperatures for 15 days. The wine is aged for 4 months before bottling. Once bottled, the wine isn't released for a further 60 days for further aging.
