Of the over 1,000 hectares, Macabeo, PX, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot, in addition to the Tempranillo are grown at the winery. There is a high content of clay and limestone in the vineyards within the region, where fruity, aromatic wines with good structure and moderate tannins are produced.

Ripe fig and dried cherry on the nose, with an interesting hint of cedar and tobacco on the palate, followed by a round, well-balanced finish.

Enjoy with grilled meats including burgers, steaks or lamb chops, tomato-based pasta dishes, or marinated herbed mushrooms.
