Valdepeñas
Valdepeñas has been linked to wine since immemorial time. It is the second Spanish designation of origin in terms of spontaneous knowledge, it always occupies one of the privileged positions in sales and is one of the oldest in Spain, since it was first recognized in 1932.
Valdepeñas, designation of origin of only 28,000 hectares, very limited geographically - in the municipalities of Alcubillas, Moral de Calatrava, San Carlos del Valle, Santa Cruz de Mudela, Torrenueva, Torre de Juan Abad, Granátula de Calatrava, Alhambra, Montiel and Valdepeñas, benefits from vineyards bathed in sunshine for more than 2,500 hours a year, with an average altitude of 750 metres above sea level, withstanding temperatures higher than 40ºC in summer and as low as -10ºC in winter and scarce rainfall. This provides its wines with a unique personality, together with limestone and clay soils ideal, for growing grapes.
