"The focus here is on old vine Garnacha of remarkable finesse and elegance. Carlos is my young winemaker of the year." — Tim Atkin MW, Rioja Special Report 2023

Vinos en Voz Baja — "whispering wines" — is the tiny, site-focused project of Carlos Mazo and his partner Isabel Ruiz in Aldeanueva de Ebro, at the far eastern edge of Rioja Oriental. What started as a garage project in 2012 is now one of the most talked-about small wineries in Spain. Carlos farms just six hectares across ten plots, working with the local varieties that define this corner of Rioja: old-vine Garnacha (red, grey and white), Tinta Velasco, Viura, Pasera and a little Tempranillo inherited from his grandfather. The vineyards are farmed organically, and everything in the winery is done by hand — whole bunch fermentation in wooden and concrete vats, spontaneous fermentation, minimal sulphur, no fining or filtration. The wines are a revelation for anyone whose experience of Rioja begins and ends with Tempranillo. Garnacha here produces wines of haunting elegance and finesse — perfumed, precise, with fine tannins and a sense of place that is entirely its own. Following in the footsteps of Álvaro Palacios, Carlos is redefining what Rioja Oriental can be. These are small production wines. When they're gone, they're gone.
