The Numanthia estate is located in the Toro region, a historically rich wine-growing area priding itself on quality, situated in the northwest of Spain. Established in 1998, this estate has become a symbol of passion, commitment, and perseverance behind the production of exceptional wines. The location of the Numanthia estate, with its temperate continental climate and sandy soils, is ideal for growing the renowned Tinta de Toro grape, a clone of the Tempranillo adapted to the region's intense drought. These old vines, some over 120 years old, produce small grapes but extremely concentrated in flavors and nuances, thus preserving the essence of the terroir. Taking advantage of a traditional winemaking process, the Numanthia estate is dedicated to the production of exceptional red wines, refined, and full of character. Among them, the Numanthia, a rich and complex red, the Termanthia, an opulent elixir that showcases the aromas of red fruits, and the elegant expression of the Termes. This estate is not only recognized for its prestigious wines but also for its commitment to sustainability. It rigorously applies environmentally friendly viticultural practices, including drip irrigation and minimal use of pesticides and chemical fertilizers. The Numanthia estate features a traditional cellar that preserves architectural features typical of the region and an aspect of pragmatic modernity. Visits to the estate are a fascinating exploration of its labyrinth of French and American barrels where wines patiently mature before bottling.
