Norzagarai Mazuelo El Detalle 2021
Norzagarai Vinos Autenticos is Santiago's one-man project. Originally Basque, he found the vineyards in Rioja Alavesa from which he wants to make wine. Keywords: low intervention wine, single Vineyard, elegance.
Mazuelo is the local Spanish name for Carinena/Carignan. A grape that is often blended in Rioja. However, Santiago managed to find an old plot that absolutely deserves a separate vinification. In his interpretation of it, you get a juicy, full and at the same time finesse-rich wine.
