Bhilar is a boutique winery located in Elvillar, in Rioja Alavesa, run by the winemaker and winemaker David Sampedro and American Melanie Hickman. Due to the diverse landscape of Elvillar, David wanted to showcase a number of vineyards he feels are truly unique and expressive.
Each vineyard has its own distinct soil, surroundings, sun exposure and microclimate. This wine pays homage to the potential from this region. The Viura grapes come from a very special, 0.68-hectare single vineyard called ‘La Revilla’, which was planted in 1925. Each vine is driven by a stake and biodynamically farmed, with careful manual cultivation, ploughing by horse and manual harvesting. The structure of these ancient clay and limestone soils can be felt in the glass.
Unique wine, pair with good company that would enjoy disthinguished wines and an exciting testimony to the mature Viura
