A robust wine and, according to the winery, Atauta’s most authentic. Undoubtedly a wine with great personality, like all those from this winery which works hard to recover what must have been in the past a magnificent wine-growing area, but which had surprisingly been abandoned until present times.
The Valdegatiles plot is a small vineyard of just 1.7 ha, with pre-phylloxera vines.
Aged for 16 months in French oak barrels.
