About the Vineyard

Located between the Sierra de Moncayo mountain range and the Ebro River valley, this historic region has produced wine since the late 12th century. The continental climate, is mitigated by the “Cierzo” wind that cools the vineyards nightly and gives the grapes its characteristic wild fruit aromas. Mostly dry farmed vineyards between 350 and 800 m of elevation.Focused on selected clones of indigenous Garnacha that originated in Aragon.
