About this winery

In the heart of Rioja Alavesa, the family-owned Mendiata Osaba estate has been farming 15 hectares of vineyards organically since 2016. Certified as a “single estate,” it is part of the region’s elite. The estate’s old vines, some of which are up to 70 years old, are south-facing, located between 300 and 600 meters above sea level on clay-limestone soils. This unique terroir results in balanced, powerful wines that are well-suited for aging.

Production notes

Osaba Mendía is a vibrant red wine expressing the distinct character of its terroir. It opens with intense aromas of ripe red and black berries, complemented by floral hints and subtle spices. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a smooth texture, balanced acidity, and fine, silky tannins that provide structure and elegance. Layers of complexity unfold, leading to a long, satisfying finish. Perfectly suited to pair with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, and mature cheeses, this wine offers a harmonious and approachable experience that captures the essence of Mendieta Osaba’s winemaking philosophy.
