Character

This garnet-red wine is balanced, rich and long-lasting. It is characterised by a particularly powerful bouquet bearing aromas of wild berries and sour cherries, blending with intense notes of pepper and clove. An appealing freshness and soft tannins are apparent on the palate, with slight vegetal notes on top of those already mentioned.

Region

Kastilien-La Mancha

Castile, the realm of windmills, yields half of Spain’s wine produce. The enormous, flat, southern half of the large central Hispanic plateau presents Spain’s more extreme conditions: at altitudes of 500 to 700 m a.s.l. it gets extremely hot and dry during summer. While the landscape is lush and green in spring, in summer it turns dark-yellow and most of the river courses dry up. The predominant type of soil is red-brown, sandy, calcareous or clayey. Viticulture is made possible due to the soil’s ability to store even scarce quantities of water. A new generation of modern-day vintners is mainly cultivating the Airén white vine type and is focussed on a clean, authentic and mainly biological production.

Producer/Brand

Don Aurelio

Im 13. Jhdt. brachten Zisterziensermönche den Weinbau aus dem Burgund ins Valdepenas, ins «Tal der Steine» zwischen Madrid und Malaga mit seine steinigen, rötlich-gelben Böden - ins heute grösste Weinbaugebiet Spaniens. Die tief liegende Kreideschicht speichert in den heissen Sommermonaten Wasser, was sich positiv auf das Rebgut auswirkt. Mit modernsten Methoden produziert hier das Familienunternehmen Navarro Lopez, 1904 gegründet, grossartige, geschmeidige Weine. Die konsequente Ausrichtung auf Sortenreinheit mit Tempranillo- und Garnacha-Trauben, die geringe Anzahl von Rebstöcken pro Hektare und der sorgfältige Barrique-Ausbau der Weine machen Don Aurelio zum echten Geheimtipp.
