Exopto’s “Horizonte” Tinto blends mainly Tempranillo with Garnacha and Graciano from old vines across Rioja Alta and Alavesa. Founded by Bordeaux native Tom Puyaubert, Exopto champions precise, site-focused Rioja.

Fermented with native yeasts and aged in French oak, it balances dark fruit with fresh lift. A vibrant, modern Rioja rooted in diverse high-altitude parcels.

Professional Reviews

Robert Parker

RP 92
"The red 2022 Horizonte de Exopto was produced with a blend of 80% Tempranillo, 20% Garnacha and 10% Graciano from different villages (Ábalos, San Vicente and Baños de Ebro) in this more Mediterranean vintage. It has darker fruit, a mixture of red and black berries and also darker spices. It's medium to full-bodied, with fine tannins and good ripeness but keeping the balance. It is young and clean, with integrated oak after it spent 12 months in a combination of oak containers of different sizes and 20% in concrete." -Luis Gutiérrez
