Product Notes

Vivanco Rioja Crianza is an exquisite Spanish red wine, produced in La Rioja of Spain. It's an elegant blend, predominantly made from the Tempranillo grape, laced with Garnacha and Mazuelo. This wine draws attention for its vibrant ruby colour and potent aromatic notes of cherry, vanilla, and spices. Maturing for 16 months in French and American oak casks adds a smooth, rich complexity to its flavour. On the palate, balanced tannins and acidity create a finish as inviting as its bouquet. The enduring harmony of this medium-bodied wine makes it an ideal partner for red meats and strong cheeses.

About the Winery

Vivanco

Located in the heart of Spain's renowned wine region, Rioja, the Vivanco winery stands as an epitome of the perfect blend between tradition and modernity. This family-owned winery, established over 100 years ago, has masterfully perfected the art of winemaking, whilst respecting the inherited knowledge and spirit of the Riojan wine culture.

The Vivanco estate sprawls over an impressive 440 hectares, where they cultivate various grape varietals, including Tempranillo, Graciano, Mazuelo, and Garnacha, these grapes are then transformed into exquisite wines bearing the remarkable Vivanco label. Incorporating cutting-edge technology with time-honoured winemaking practices handed down through generations, each bottle reflects the distinctive flavours and characteristics of the varietals grown on their lands.

What truly sets Vivanco apart is their commitment to sustainable winemaking. Receptive to their surroundings and its preservation, they follow organic farming practices cultivating the land in tune with nature's rhythm. This eco-friendly approach is also mirrored in their contemporary winery, built underground to maintain a stable temperature all year round, serving as a perfect ageing place for the wines.

Aside from producing top-tier wines, Vivanco has also committed itself to promoting wine culture. To achieve this, they've established a Wine Museum of international acclaim, showcasing the history of wine across centuries. Spanning five exhibition halls over 4,000 square metres, it stands as one of the most comprehensive wine museums in the world, blending education and entertainment in a splendidly engaging manner.

Vivanco winery, by integrating tradition, innovation, sustainability and culture, offers not just an excellent selection of wines, but a comprehensive and unforgettable experience to its visitors. It is truly a must-visit destination for wine enthusiasts looking to immerse themselves in the heart of Riojian wine culture. One could argue, that Vivanco is not just a winery, rather it's a celebration of wine itself.
