Bodegas Lezaun is small by any definition, but surely small by Navarra standards where giant co-ops are common. The first written mention of the estate dates back to 1780, where documents describe the winery as it functioned at the time. Since then, the wisdom of winemaking and tradition has passed through several generations. Their red blend has lush notes of red and black berries with supple tannins and pleasant acidity.
19 hectares of organically farmed vines. The fruit is hand-picked and intervention in the cellar is minimum. Indigenous yeasts initiate a natural fermentation in stainless steel. This Joven wine is bottled young.
