Flavour notes

Yjar 2020 shows a clearly floral side, with violets and other flower notes alongside raspberry, blueberry and red and blue berries. Beneath that sits a firm mineral line of chalk, shells, limestone and graphite, with white pepper, herbs, grapefruit zest and subtle earthy tones adding detail.

On the palate it is dry, full and lively, shaped by fine tannins described as dusty and chalky. The structure is pronounced but clean and seamless, carrying the fruit, floral notes, spice and limestone-like minerality through the finish.

Product info about Yjar 2020

Yjar 2020 is a red Rioja with a sharply defined origin. It comes from a vineyard of around 3.8 hectares near Labastida in Rioja Alavesa, on the foothills of the Sierra de Toloño. The site is planted with old mixed vines at high altitude, trained as bush vines or gobelet, on limestone-rich soils with marl, stones and a clear carbonate component.

The wine is connected to Telmo Rodríguez and Pablo Eguzkiza within the setting of the historic Remelluri estate. Yjar is not positioned as a regular Remelluri cuvée, but as a separate single-site project built around old mixed plantings and the high-altitude terroirs of Rioja Alavesa. Its name refers to Hájar/Yjar, a historical name associated with the area.

For the 2020 vintage, the varieties from the mixed vineyard were fermented together: Tempranillo, Garnacha, Graciano, Grand Noir or Granegro and Rojal. Fermentation took place with indigenous yeasts in open wooden vats, followed by around 30 months of ageing in foudres and barrels of various sizes. The vintage was demanding for this parcel, with early rain and hail followed by a warm, dry summer, so selection was particularly strict.

At Drankenshop Broekmans, Yjar 2020 stands out for customers looking for Rioja with site identity, structure and real ageing ambition. The vintage received strong critical recognition, including 96+ points from Luis Gutiérrez for The Wine Advocate, 96 points from Jane Anson, 98 points from James Suckling and 97 points cited for The Drinks Business via Colin Hay. With only the last bottles remaining, it is a notably scarce release in the assortment.

Yjar 2020 shows a clearly floral side, with violets and other flower notes alongside raspberry, blueberry and red and blue berries. Beneath that sits a firm mineral line of chalk, shells, limestone and graphite, with white pepper, herbs, grapefruit zest and subtle earthy tones adding detail.

On the palate it is dry, full and lively, shaped by fine tannins described as dusty and chalky. The structure is pronounced but clean and seamless, carrying the fruit, floral notes, spice and limestone-like minerality through the finish.

About YJAR

Yjar is a Spanish wine brand originating from the Rioja Alavesa region, an area known for its long wine tradition and ideal climatic conditions for viticulture. Behind this brand stands Telmo Rodriguez, a winemaker with renown within the Spanish wine world, who gained recognition through his work at various Spanish estates and his commitment to preserving indigenous grape varieties. Yjar is based on a selection of specific vineyards around the village of Laguardia, where old vines mainly produce Tempranillo, Graciano, Garnacha, and other local grape varieties. The production process is characterized by respect for the terroir and limited production, resulting in a characterful and complex wine that reflects the unique character of the area. For the maturation of the wine, a combination of French and sometimes also American oak barrels is often chosen, aiming for a balanced harmony between fruit, spiciness, and oak influences. The style of Yjar is distinguished by elegance and structure, and the wine has been recognized by connoisseurs as a remarkable Rioja with an idiosyncratic character. The brand has quickly built a reputation among wine lovers looking for modern, refined Spanish wines with depth and expression.
