The wine

Pujanza has been synonymous with elegance right from its early beginnings. The winery has understood how to respect the essence of Rioja tradition, but applying the required touches of modernity which allow its wines to adapt to contemporary times.

Pujanza Hado is the winery's initial wine, yet it already possesses all the merits of its older siblings. Its fruit is red and intense and the oak acts as a complement whose only function is to enhance. The altitude of the vineyards and the complexity derived from a calcareous-clay soil form the profile of a wine that has the foundations of a great red, one of those wines in which everything is as it should be (acidity, tannins...), in perfect harmony.

What does this wine taste like?

It has character but there's no arrogance, it comes over as direct and fresh, but always based on elegance and refinement. The freshness of wild red berry fruit, spices like cloves and pepper, and a lactic touch laced with shavings of orange peel and fine toasty notes ensure that Pujanza Hado will be liked by all and intriguing to many.

Wine critics reviewsReviews by Parker

The 2018 Hado is a village red from Laguardia, produced with Tempranillo grapes from a number of vineyards, a total of 23 plots planted with vines ranging between 20 and 50 years of age on limestone and clay soils at least 600 meters in altitude. It fermented in stainless steel by soil with indigenous yeasts, with malolactic in those same vats, and it matured in French barriques for 12 months. It has a very strong note of iron and blood, with a lovely mixture of austerity and rusticity that gives it a strong character. The nose shows the character of the vintage and is a preview of what you are going to find in the mouth: freshness, chalky minerality and fine tannins, with the wine talking about the soil and not the grapes. 100,000 bottles produced.

Bodegas y Viñedos Pujanza is located within the municipality of Laguardia, at the foot of the Sierra de Cantabria, in a really beautiful part of the Rioja Alavesa, on the edge of the vine-growing region. Pujanza started out on its path in 1998, under the direction of Carlos San Pedro, descended from a family of vine growers with three generations of experience accumulated over time. Those very first bottles made on the family's premises held a unique wine which featured the...
