Bideona Vino de Pueblo, Laguardia L4GD4, Rioja is a remarkable example of modern Rioja winemaking, shaped by an innovative philosophy that celebrates the unique origin of each vineyard site. Crafted in the heart of Rioja Alavesa, Bideona focuses on showcasing terroir rather than traditional ageing, offering a distinctively fresh perspective. The vineyards are nestled on the slopes of the Sierra Cantabria, surrounding the picturesque villages of Villabuena, Leza, Laguardia, and Banos del Ebro. Here, old bush vines-some dating back to the 1920s-are planted in limestone-rich soils at high altitudes, imparting a sense of place and depth that sets Alavesa apart. With meticulous vineyard care and minimal intervention in the winery, Bideona aims to express purity, freshness, and genuine character in every bottle. This wine is crafted exclusively from hand-harvested Tempranillo grapes, offering an authentic taste of the enchanting Laguardia landscape.
