The wine region of Manchuela
Castile-La Mancha DOP between the Júcar and Cabriel valleys, plateaus at 600-1,000 m. Signature native Bobal red king (~40% of the vineyard): coloured and fresh with notes of black cherry, blackberry, plum, violet, herbs and a mineral touch, round tannins and a juicy palate — lively thanks to altitude, fleshy yet refreshing. Also supple Tempranillo, dense Monastrell, fruity Garnacha, peppery Syrah. Lively Macabeo and Verdejo whites.
The wine region of Castille
Cradle of great Castilian reds, high-altitude plateaus (450-1000 m) along the Duero. Tempranillo king (aka Tinta de Toro, Tinto Fino): powerful, concentrated, structured reds with notes of black cherry, plum, leather, tobacco and spice, firm tannins from altitude and cool nights. Stars: Ribera del Duero (Vega Sicilia, Pingus), fleshy Toro, Bierzo (floral, mineral Mencía). Lively, herbaceous Verdejo whites from Rueda.
The word of the wine: Bâtonnage
A very old technique that has come back into fashion in modern oenology, which consists of shaking the white wine in the barrels at the end of fermentation, or after fermentation, with a stick or a flail, in order to suspend the fine lees composed of yeasts at the end of their activity. This process is sometimes used for red wines.
