ISAAC FERNANDEZ SELECCION

Rioja D.O.Ca.

Isaac Fernández Selección is a unique collaborative venture between two individuals – Isaac Fernández Montaña one of Spain’s most acclaimed winemakers and Aurelio Cabestrero whose vision and commitment helped bring Spanish wines to the forefront in the United States. They work at rediscovering forgotten regions of superior terroir and maximizing the potential from old vines of indigenous grape varieties in a number of regions.

Pingao a Tempranillo from the classic region of Rioja was first produced in 2013. It is sourced from old bush vines and presents the classic Rioja elements of mineral-driven red fruit aromas and juicy cherry flavors in a more modern style where fruit is given equal billing to oak aging.
