Aroa Jauna Organic

The modern and elegant Aroa Jauna Organic produced by Bodegas Aroa comes from the northern edge of Navarra, which borders the Urbasa and Andia mountain ranges. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Grenache were grown organically in calcareous clay soil.

The boutique estate style includes carefully selected vineyards in the highest and coolest areas of the region, hand harvesting and extremely meticulous wine production. Crushed grapes were macerated and fermented for 18 days in refrigerated tanks. The wine was aged for a year in French and American oak. In addition, it was aged for at least a year in the bottle. The wine is suitable for vegans.

Aroa Jauna Organic is produced by Aroa Bodegas, owned by Vintae. Aroa Bodegas is pioneering in Navarra, Spain, not only as a producer of organic and biodynamic wines, but also as a master of minimal logistics and environmentally sustainable operations.

The vineyards in Yerri Valley have been carefully selected, are located at high altitude and the distance to the bodega is short. The proximity of the Bay of Biscay, rich soil and abundant light support the growth of the vines. Production is characterized by the idea of minimal intervention, which allows the grapes to speak through the wine.
