Grapes sourced from vineyards planted over 30 years ago close to the winery. Average altitude 400 m. The soils are clay – silt – loam based with an abundance of pebble stones, which favour the quality of the tannins in the wines, increasing their ageing potential. The subsoil o¬ers good drainage, with cracks that allow the roots of the vines to penetrate deeply in search of water and nutrients, helping consistency and body in the resulting wines. They allow for fine wine making and the development of true Tempranillo varietal character.
