Location

The Winery and its vineyards are geographically located in the heart of the Cariñena Denomination of Origin, one of Spain's most traditional wine-producing regions. The origin of the Aragonese vineyards comes from the region called Celtíbera, where the Roman town of Carae (today Cariñena) was situated and whose inhabitants were known to drink wine mixed with honey as far back as the 3rd century B.C. The Denomination of Origin was obtained in 1932, with Cariñena being one of the first Spanish wines to achieve it, and confirming the pioneering nature in Aragon of the Denominations of Origin.

The vineyards are located in the 14 towns of the Region, at the bottom of the Algairén and Pecos mountain ranges, between the Huerva and Jalón rivers, at heights of between 320 and 850 metres above sea level.

Our wines are produced based on three fundamental aspects that form the essence of each one of them: the land, the climate and the variety.

On the foothills of mountains the soil is poor with underlying rocks, while on the plains the soil is mainly brownish-limestone or brownish-red settled on top of stony ground. More than 60% of the vineyard is planted using the head-pruning system and on dry land.

The climate is continental with cold winters and very hot summers, the average yearly temperature is 14.4°C, and the rainfall is 435 mm/year, with May and June being the rainiest months.
