Exopto Sketch
The Exopto Sketch, as its name indicates, is our first wine project in which we present the main lines of our range: a young, fresh, newly born wine, whose explosion of fruity aromas with mineral touches will allow the consumer to enjoy the fusion of the 3 dominant varieties of Rioja.

Bodegas Exopto
Bodegas Exopto is a project founded in 2003 by Tom Puyaubert, with the aim of recovering and valuing old vineyards on the slopes of the Sierra Cantabria and Monte Yerga. Based on a sustainable and environmentally respectful viticulture, our work philosophy aims to express the multitude of terroirs that make up the D.O.C. Rioja. Returning to artisanal vine work to produce honest and authentic wines is the goal we pursue with passion and enthusiasm.
10 hectares in the towns of Alfaro and Aldeanueva de Ebro, with Mediterranean influence, sandy soils with the presence of pebbles. Ideal conditions for the development of old garnachas in goblet form.
12 hectares in the towns of Ábalos, San Vicente de la Sonsierra, and Baños de Ebro, with Atlantic influence, calcareous clay soils. Tempranillo, Malvasía, and Viura over 60 years old make up the vast majority of the vineyards in this area.
All our parcel wines come from vineyards cultivated with the utmost respect for the environment.
We cultivate the land with animals, treatments are carried out artisanally, by hand, and we increasingly apply biodynamic concepts to fully express the character of each parcel.
