The gnarled 50 year old vines that provide the fruit for Rafael Cañizares’ wine come from high up (1800 ft.) an arid, rocky landscape. This eastern region of La Mancha has very cold winters, extremely hot summers and ferrous, chalky soil. Stainless steel tank fermented and aged for 14 months in both new and 2nd use French oak barrels, this rich and supple wine totally belies its bleak place of origin.
