Eguren Ugarte Crianza 2022 – Rioja Alavesa Red Wine

Eguren Ugarte Crianza 2022 is a traditional Rioja red wine crafted from Tempranillo grapes in the vineyards of Rioja Alavesa.

Aged for 15 months in American oak barrels, this wine combines the richness of ripe fruit with elegant notes of vanilla, toasted wood and spice. The careful ageing process adds depth and complexity while preserving the expressive character of the grape.

After destemming and crushing, fermentation takes place over 10 days at controlled temperatures between 25–28°C, creating a wine with structure, balance and classic Rioja personality.

Eguren Ugarte Crianza is an excellent example of approachable yet refined Rioja, offering both freshness and ageing character in perfect harmony.
