Description

Moraza’s Tempranillo 2022 is a clean and expressive single-varietal Rioja showing the advantages of organic/biodynamic viticulture and low-intervention winemaking. The concrete ageing emphasises terroir and fruit rather than wood, making it an elegant, modern take on Rioja Tempranillo — approachable now yet with depth.
