TERROIR
Different types of terroir depending on the "fincas" (estates) where the vines are grown (see below).
LOCATION
The vines are grown on the El Secadero, La Milla, and Montijo estates.
El Secadero: This part of the estate includes 8 hectares of Tempranillo. It is a very cool and stony clay-limestone terroir, which has always allowed us to obtain wines of exceptional quality. With a great drainage capacity, better health, and maturity, this terroir transmits a certain minerality that makes the wines much more complex and unique.
La Milla: This part of the estate spans 45 hectares where Moscatel, Viura, Chardonnay, and Merlot grapes, as well as olive trees, are cultivated. The clay-limestone soil is ideal for white grapes and for the red Merlot variety, which adapts wonderfully to the stonier areas, providing minerality and structure.
Montijo: This is a very special estate for us. It is located in Olite, next to our current winery, and it is home to the oldest vines, from which we obtain our Finca Montijo, a limited-production wine with several awards, possessing an intense black cherry color.
