PUENTE DEL EA

Puente del Ea is a boutique winery located on the banks of the river Ea in the beautiful village of Sajazarra (La Rioja) Its history began 22 years ago, in 2001. Looking for the best places to make and feel the wine, a group of friends joined together to create "a life project", as they call it. After the first few years dedicated to understanding the virtues of their environment, surrounded by old vines and located in the westernmost and highest point of the Rioja Alta area, today they are relaunching their enthusiasm with a new project, making wines full of freshness, pleasure and authenticity.

This new stage has the signature of Julien Viaud, agronomist, viticulturist, winemaker and international consultant known for his more than 15 years as part of Michel Rolland's team, which he now directs at Laboratoire Rolland & Associés. He embodies the new generation of consultants who are involved in both viticulture and oenology. Working alongside Julien is Ana Gonzalo from La Rioja as head winemaker in a project led by Rodrigo Madrid, the winery's manager.

Their wines transmit the essence of a unique place in the world, the headwaters of Rioja, where all influences come together as a symbol of their open, dynamic and global vocation. They have two distinct ranges: one of a more classic style called Eridano and another of a more modern style, named after the winery, Puente del Ea. All of them are wines that speak of tradition and future, of roots and history, of the environment in which they grow and the nature that shapes them.
