Maisulan is the work of Eva Fernández and Luis Ruiz de Viñaspre. They describe themselves as "two crazy people who are in love with their land" and therefore work it in a very special way. Both Eva Fernández and Luis Ruiz de Viñaspre come from Rioja Alavesa. In Luis' case, you can even tell from the name, because Viñaspre is a neighbouring village to Elvillar, where they also own plots of land. The vineyards are mostly on slopes and the vines are mostly still trained as bush vines. The winemaking couple already turned to organic farming with biodynamic means many years ago.

Tasting Notes

The 12 Meses seems like a sensual archetype of the Alavesa Rioja. Smoothly presents a ripe fruit of raspberries, wild strawberry compote and ripe black cherries in combination with a little yeast, some cumin, undergrowth and a little peat. Cool rocks flash in the background. On the palate, the wine is present from the first moment and clearly darker than could be foreseen in the aroma. Notes of black cherries and plums are mixed with a few elderberries and sloes, even a little beetroot, which gives the wine an earthy note in addition to the dark fruit.
