About La Mimbrera de Exopto Coupage Tradicional

The most potent dreams are not those that are merely fantasised, but those that are realised through sheer determination. For the Frenchman Tom Puyaubert, owning his own winery initially seemed a distant and unattainable goal. However, when he finally accomplished it, he chose to name his venture Exopto, a Latin word meaning "to desire intensely." After leaving Bordeaux driven by an irresistible attraction to the Rioja landscape, Tom understood that the true essence of his work lay in rescuing ancient vineyards and listening to the land without imposing anything. La Mimbrera de Exopto Coupage Tradicional is the direct reflection of that aspiration.

From the noble town of Ábalos, in the Rioja Alta and under the auspices of the DOCa Rioja, this wine is rooted at the foothills of the Sierra de Cantabria. It originates from the La Mimbrera estate, an iconic plot planted at an altitude of 600 metres, where the cool mountain breeze balances the hours of sunlight. The old vines thrive on very poor clay-limestone soils, rich in limestone, a demanding terrain that compels the plant to self-regulate and naturally concentrate the flavour of each grape. The climate combines Mediterranean warmth with a pronounced Atlantic influence, allowing for a slow maturation that preserves impeccable acidity. True to the local tradition, the vineyard brings together the varieties tempranillo, garnacha, and viura, cultivated under a philosophy of minimal impact, respect for biodiversity, and manual harvesting.

The production of La Mimbrera de Exopto Coupage Tradicional is carried out through a meticulous process in the winery. The grapes are hand-picked at the optimal point of ripeness and gently transported in small 15-kilogram boxes to prevent premature breakage of the berries. Once in the winery, integral vinification is carried out at a low temperature, maintained at 22°C to preserve the freshest aromas and fruitiness. The wine undergoes a prolonged maceration for approximately two weeks. After completing alcoholic fermentation and malolactic fermentation, the ageing is divided into two stages: first, it rests for 12 months in used 225-litre French oak barrels to gain roundness without masking the fruit, and subsequently, it undergoes a final ageing of 6 months in a ceramic amphora, a porous vessel that provides micro-oxygenation and enhances the mineral and pure profile of the terroir.

La Mimbrera de Exopto Coupage Tradicional is a profound, elegant, and vibrant wine. A creation that demonstrates how perseverance can bottle the very essence of a land.
