Terroir
Climate
Terroir
- Utiel Requena is located on the highlands at an altitude 600m to 900m above sea level (average 720m). The soil in the north and in the Magro Valley is alluvial while the soil in the south is clay with a sandy sub soil.
Climate
- Utiel-Requena is characterised for its continental climate with extremely hot summers and winters that get so cold that frost is frequent. The differences between maximum and minimum temperatures through the day is a key factor in producing quality grapes and this region often sees a difference between day and night temperatures of up to 30°C. This helps the grapes increase their aromatic character.
- Ruby red in colour with medium intensity. On the nose, distinctive notes of compote of mature fruits which remind us of plum and blackberry. On the palate, it is soft, fresh and rounded time due to its mature tannins. Definitely, a really well balanced wine.
- 50% Merlot 25% Bobal 25% Tempranillo.
- Hand-picked grapes at the beginning of October. Fermentation at a controlled temperature of 23°C.
- 8 months in French and American oak casks.
