The Eguren family strove to produce a world class wine from the miniscule Finca La Nieta, a vineyard with shallower, poorer soils, and a superior microclimate than the neighboring El Puntido vineyard. This product is the flagship wine of Viñedos de Páganos, La Nieta. The Eguren family wanted to use this vineyard to showcase the subtlety and elegance that Tempranillo can represent and they have achieved that with La Nieta.
