La Bicicleta Voldadora

  • "The wines we want to make at La Bicicleta Voladora were defined from a vineyard perspective: We want fresh, fluid and vertical wines! Made from happy grapes, with no chemicals and no wood!" - German Blanco

La Bicicleta Voladora is German Blanco's (Casa Aurora and Quinta Milu) project in Rioja Oriental, from grapes grown in Navarra.  He rents the vineyard and makes the wines at the winery from a longtime friend and vigneron from the area.  The grapes are organically certified, and the wines are uncomplicated, made to be drunk young.

Please visit our Quinta Milú page for more wine by Germàn. He also produces wines from high-altitude vines in Bierzo; for more information, visit our Casa Aurora page.
