Winemaker Carlos Mazo is one of a generation of young, thoughtful producers further driving change towards authenticity and vineyard\/terroir specificity. In 2023, Tim Atkin \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eMW anointed Carlos as Rioja Young Winemaker of the Year in 2023, impressed by the elegant, beautifully honest and vibrant wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-value=\"{\u0026quot;1\u0026quot;:2,\u0026quot;2\u0026quot;:\u0026quot;Wines in a Low Voice' is the project of Carlos Mazo in the eastern most corner of Rioja.

If you focus on Garnacha, he is making some of the finest in the whole region. Following in the wake of the ground-breaking work of Alvaro Palacios (Palacios Remondo), Carlos takes this work a step further towards a more delicate, transparent, terroir style – his wines will come to define the eastern terroirs of Rioja around Mount Yerga and the Sierra de Los Agudos. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-value=\"{\u0026quot;1\u0026quot;:2,\u0026quot;2\u0026quot;:\u0026quot;Wines in a Low Voice' is the project of Carlos Mazo in the eastern most corner of Rioja.
