Contemporary Elegance and Rioja Alavesa Terroir
Aiurri Landua 2021 Red Wine 750 ml is the most personal interpretation of Rioja Alavesa made by the Bodega Aiurri team under the comprehensive vision of Alma Carraovejas.

Vinified with fermentation in wooden and concrete vats, and aged in vats and oak barrels, this red wine, classified as dry, impresses with its jovial freshness, enveloping texture, balanced acidity, and long mineral and balsamic aftertaste.
