Bodegas Agronavarra

Since its establishment in 1983 when Principe de Viana was founded in Murchante, the company has embarked on a trajectory of remarkable success. In a mere span of 25 years, it has emerged as one of the foremost and most esteemed wineries in Navarra. Carlos III of Navarra, upon receiving news of his grandson Carlos' birth, expressed his immense joy by bestowing four thousand gold pieces upon the messenger.

Viura is grown widely in Navarra as it suits the warm open aspect vineyards and higher altidude, with the grapes' natural acidity and minerality preserved by efficient machine picking, a blend of de-stemmed and whole bunch pressing before the clear juice is pumped into large steel tanks tanks and cold settled for a number of days. The juice is then fermented using natural yeasts for around 20 days at a cool 14 deg, before ageing on the lees in tank for a short time, then filtered and bottled.
