In just over two decades Bodegas Pujanza has become a true first growth of Rioja Alavesa — estate-grown, single-vineyard, high-altitude wines that showcase exuberant fruit, finesse and beautiful integration. Over the years Carlos has tirelessly sourced and acquired some of the most unique old-vine plots in the region, adding up to nearly forty hectares.

The smallest of Rioja’s three sub-regions, north of the Ebro, dominated by the ash-coloured Cantabrian mountains. It is the closest of the three zones to the Atlantic and the most influenced by its cooling effect.
Vines grow on slopes and terraces of chalky clay and limestone, producing wines rich in extract and character. Annual rainfall averages twenty inches, forcing roots deep into the soil in search of water.
