About the Vineyard
From the Pago La Encina vineyard in Gumiel de Mercado. Vines with an age of 30 years are grown at an elevation of 860m with a Southern exposure, allowing the grapes to benefit from many hours of sunshine. The calcareous clay soil along with the vineyard’s location limits water and nutrients retention, so that grapes ripen slower and have a greater supply of tannins In addition, this type of soil has a high pH which produces wines with greater body, structure and lower acidity.
