Vineyards
Our vineyards are situated on the best land, stretching out along the course of the river Guadiana. These waters, coupled with the calcareous soils, mean they have special geological and microclimate conditions, which are natural and very favourable for growing grapes..

The average yield per hectare is 40 hl.
In the coming years, driven by the restructuring of the vineyards, there will be a significant increase in new varieties, mainly from red grapes.
