Discovering the wine region of La Laguna

The Parras Valley is a small wine region in the Sierra Madre Oriental mountains of Central northern Mexico. Despite being an area with a Rich viticultural history, Parras Valley is a relatively unknown region of wine production on a national and international scale. The valley plays only a small Part in the modern Mexican wine industry as 90 percent of the nation's wine comes from Baja California. The oldest winery in the Americas – the Casa Madera – can be found here, on the site of a Jesuit mission.

From here, the vitis vinifera wine Grape species was taken northwards to California and South to Chile. Parras de la Fuente (which means 'vineyards of the spring') is the commercial Center of the Parras Valley. Parras is also known casually as The Oasis of Coahuila – for many miles in every direction the landscape consists entirely of mountains and semi-desert. At an altitude of almost 1,525 meters (5,000ft), the Climate here is significantly cooler than on the Caribbean coast below and to the east.

The Tropic of Capricorn passes just to the south of Parras, confirming the area's proximity to the equator. To find quality wine being made at such a tropical latitude is unusual, and is only possible because of the air conditioning effect of the combination of altitude and Dry desert air. The very low annual rainfall in the Parras Valley makes irrigation essential. The climate here is classified as Warm Arid Desert on the Koppen Climate Classification scale, and in the driest areas the annual rainfall can be as low as 200mm (8 inches).

Discover the grape variety: Cabernet franc

Cabernet Franc is one of the oldest red grape varieties in Bordeaux. The Libourne region is its terroir where it develops best. The terroirs of Saint-Emilion and Fronsac allow it to mature and develop its best range of aromas. It is also the majority in many blends. The very famous Château Cheval Blanc, for example, uses 60% Cabernet Franc. The wines produced with Cabernet Franc are medium in colour with fine tannins and subtle aromas of small red fruits and spices. When blended with Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, it brings complexity and a bouquet of aromas to the wine. It produces fruity wines that can be drunk quite quickly, but whose great vintages can be kept for a long time. It is an earlier grape variety than Cabernet Sauvignon, which means that it is planted as far north as the Loire Valley. In Anjou, it is also used to make sweet rosé wines. Cabernet Franc is now used in some twenty countries in Europe and throughout the world.
