With a wine tradition dating back to 1870, the Eguren family is among the absolute top with wines such as Sierra Cantabria, San Vicente Manor, Numanthia-Termes (recently sold to LVMH group). La Nieta is Eguren's top wine and flagship and comes from a very small 1.75 hectare vineyard planted in 1975 in Páganos (Laguardia, Rioja Alava) at an altitude of 525 meters above sea level. The soil is very calcareous clay soil. LaNieta means "Granddaughter" and is a project that Eguren started after the birth of his granddaughter.

The grapes are fermented in four 1000-litre oak barrels and the wine is aged in new French barriques for 16 months. The nose is subtle, ripe without being overpowering. La Nieta is at the same time a very powerful and very elegant wine, a combination that is not so easy to find. The palate is medium to full-bodied with a very mineral feel. The wine can be drunk now but only with a hearty steak but you will certainly be rewarded if you leave it for a few more years. Only 5000 bottles of La Nieta were produced and this wine is among the best in Spain. Parker also writes about La Nieta "Nieta has been the star again"

This version is a magnum of 1.5 liter. Even tastier and stays nice longer on drink and only a very limited number were made.

The Spanish winery Viñedos de Paganos is an exclusive winery and is one of the magnificent wineries of Hermanos Eguren.

Sommy Pairing Beschrijving De 2022 Paganos La Nieta Magnum toont rijp zwart fruit en verfijnde rijpheidsaroma's met subtiele toast van nieuwe Franse eik, stevige maar elegante tannines, een medium tot full-bodied textuur en een uitgesproken mineraal karakter. Door die combinatie van concentratie, frisse zuren en fijne tannines ondersteunt de wijn krachtige vleessmaken zonder te overheersen, waardoor hij perfect aansluit bij rundvlees, lam en rijke stoofgerechten en tegelijk feestelijk en verfijnd genoeg is voor een romantische gelegenheid. Probeer hem bij een gegrilde entrecote of ribeye met gesmoorde sjalotten, bij langzaam gegaard lamsvlees met rozemarijn of bij een langzaam gestoofd rundvlees of runderwangen in rode wijnsaus: deze bereidingen halen het beste in de structuur en het minerale profiel van de La Nieta naar boven.

The Spanish winery Viñedos de Paganos is an exclusive winery in the medieval village of Laguardia and is one of Hermanos Eguren's beautiful wineries. The winery is located in the subregion Rioja Alavesa at the foot of the Sierra de Cantabria at about 600 meters altitude. The area is surrounded by dolmens, archaeological sites, chapels and old medieval churches.

Paganos winery has an underground cellar, located under the vineyards, carved into the rock.

The area has an Atlantic climate with continental nuances, and is sheltered from the cold winds from the north by the Sierra de Cantabria mountains. The soils of this estate, calcareous loam or clay loam with a high minerality in texture, give the vineyard, and therefore the wine, a unique mineral character with exceptional personality. Under this soil you can find a sandstone substrate where the roots are perfectly integrated.

Paganos winery was founded in 1998 by Marcos and Miguel Eguren, with the aim of producing great wines with great intrinsic characteristics and personality. The beautiful combination of climate, soil and vine varieties made this mission a complete success.
