Discover the grape variety: Barbera blanche
Crisp, taut whites with a marked acidity, showing discreet aromas of green apple, citrus, white flowers and fresh herbal notes. Neutral and refreshing profile. Preserved in confidential parcels in Piedmont (Monferrato, Alessandria) for its heritage value, subject to ampelographic studies. Very rare autochthonous Piedmontese variety, with no genetic link to black barbera despite the shared name.

The wine region of Méntrida
DO in northwest Toledo (Castilla-La Mancha), extreme continental climate, granitic soils, centenarian vines. Garnacha Tinta is the signature red king (>80%) in qualitative renaissance: finesse and mineral precision with red cherry, raspberry, dried flowers, herbs and pepper, silky tannins and airy transparency — compared to Pinot Noir. Tempranillo and Syrah as complements. Floral Albillo as white.
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: Ancestral method
A method of making certain sparkling wines such as blanquette de Limoux, sparkling gaillac or clairette de Die, which consists of a second fermentation in the bottle based on natural sugars and yeasts naturally brought by the grapes (unlike the méthode champenoise, which requires the addition of tirage liquor).
