About Heraclio Alfaro Crianza

Heraclio Alfaro Crianza is a red wine made from the Tempranillo, Grenache and Graciano varieties that the Heraclio Alfaro project produces within the DOCa. Rioja.

Terras Gauda, a winery known for fostering mainly the Albariño variety from Rías Baixas, is embarking on a new project with the aim of producing good wines. This is the case of Heraclio Alfaro, a red wine from the D.O. Ca. Rioja, which reflects the personality and character of red varieties in their natural habitat.

30 hectares of 40-year-old vines have been cultivated to produce the red wine Heraclio Alfaro Crianza: loamy soils and a Mediterranean climate with a continental influence that produce Tempranillo, Grenache and Graciano grapes that are evidence of the identity of the DOCa. Rioja.

Once the grapes have been selected, Heraclio Alfaro Crianza is macerated and fermented in stainless steel tanks and is aged for 12 months in oak barrels. Before putting it on the market, it is then left to refine in the bottle.

Heraclio Alfaro Crianza is the name given to this red wine from the Terras Gauda winery in Rioja.
