Bozeto means ‘sketch’ or ‘outline’ and as the name implies, this is Tom Puyaubert’s entry-level wine. It’s been designed as a delicious, easy-drinking introduction to the range, and takes in a pan-regional expression of Rioja's three principle grape varieties. While the majority of entry-level wines from this region today are based on Tempranillo (a variety both easier and more profitable to grow), here Garnacha represents 40% of the blend. This Garnacha hails from the sandy, river stone terroir of El Agudo—a 60-year-old plot at Alfaro on Monte Yerga (in Rioja Oriental). The Tempranillo is drawn from a selection of mature vines in Ábalos (high county Rioja Alta), and there is also some Ábalos Graciano, adding freshness and finesse.
Puyabert fermented this wine in a combination of concrete and steel tank, then aged it for six months in concrete and 5,000-litre oak vats. These days, Tom is including a measure of semi-carbonic maceration, which, alongside the depth of the vintage makes for one of Bozeto’s most engaging releases yet.
