Description
Valentin and Enciso have over 33 years of experience and background in Rioja and by combining their first names the name Valenciso was born. Founded in 1998, Valenciso is located in Ollauri, just 4 km from Haro in the heart of Rioja Alta. Valenciso aims to express the elegance and delicacy of Northern Tempranillo and focuses on producing premium, unique and elegant Tempranillos. Valenciso makes its difference by integrating organic and biodynamic practices in the vineyard, fermenting in concrete vats and aging the wine only in French oak barrels.
The Valenciso Reserva 10 Years (Anos Despues) is a 100% pure Tempranillo from the calcareous soils around Haro in the Rioja Alta. At CompañÃa Bodeguera de Valenciso, quality is deliberately chosen over quantity, so aggressive pruning takes place (yield only 38hl per hectare). This unique project in Rioja Alta initially had only one goal; making one wine from only Tempranillo and then bringing an excellent Rioja Reserva to the market. The grapes are harvested manually. The wine is only bottled 10 years after the harvest. Fermentation for 60 months in concrete vats. Maturation 40 months in wooden barrels, so a total of 10 years, also explains the title of this unique Rioja. This 2014 will therefore not be available until the end of 2024.
FACT: The wine is in our conditioned Wine Warehouse and if you come to pick up the wine you will often also receive a nice discount . You will see your discount immediately when you choose 'Pick up' on the checkout page. We are located in Dordrecht almost next to the A16 with plenty of parking. Click here for our address.

I retasted the 2014 10 Años Después that I already tasted last year. I found notes of fountain pen ink, earth and licorice, spices and smoke from the 36 months it spent in Caucasian oak barrels and the further 14 months in French barriques. 2014 was not an easy vintage in Rioja, and the wine might have been a little too weak for the oak treatment. It's ripe at 14.5% alcohol and has mellow acidity. 5,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in July 2022.
Valenciso was sold in December 2024 to the Iberian group who also have wineries in Ribera del Duero and Priorat, but Luis ValentÃn and Carmen Enciso, who created the company back in 1998, continue providing their know-how. They have 31 hectares of organically farmed vines (since 2017) and produce 150,000 bottles.

Winemakers with over 25 years of experience in La Rioja. In 1998 they revived an old winery and gave it the name Valenciso which is a combination of the two surnames (Valentin and Enciso). The vineyards and bodega are located in Ollauri, 4 km from Haro in the north of La Rioja Alta. An area that differs from the rest of the Rioja by a climate with Atlantic influences and Mediterranean heat. The vineyards are located on a clay-calcareous terroir, so ideal for growing grapes. CompañÃa Bodeguera de Valenciso works on a small scale and authentic with a lot of passion. The wine continues to receive international high ratings with 90+ ratings from Penin and Parker.
