My relationship with the Arzak family began long ago and over the years we have enjoyed many long evenings, gathered around the table, where exceptional food and wine were always present. And it was during those conversations that the idea of making a wine together formed.
Juan Mari has always loved rosé wines and maintains that ours is the best. Thus, we began to conceptualize our perfect rosé, that wine we would always want to drink, and from there Chivite Las Fincas was conceived.
Our Garnacha and Tempranillo grapes are grown on the Finca de Legardeta, land that has belonged to my family for years, where the continental climate and soil have always contributed to the exceptional characteristics of all of our wines.
After two years of trials, Chivite Las Fincas’ first vintage, produced under the IGP Vino de la Tierra 3 Riberas, will make its market debut in June 2015.
