About the Winery
Casa Los Frailes
Casa Los Frailes is located in the valley called “land of Alforins”, south west inland province of Valencia, with average altitude of 650-700 meters above sea level. The valley is located between two mountains range, on the east the Mediterranean Sea (50km) and on the west the main “plateau” of La Mancha. Casa Los Frailes (“Cals Frares” in old valencian local language) takes their name from the Jesuit Friars that used to live in the Estate over two centuries (XVII to XVIII). The Casa Los Frailes estate now belongs to the Velázquez family and has for over 250 years, today the 13th generation runs the winery.
Frontrunners in organic agriculture and biodynamics, the estate consists of 162 hectare with vineyards, Mediterranean forest, almond and olive trees and a unique terroir. The main variety was (and still is) the Monastrell, cultivated in bush vines. "As inheritors of such legacy, we believe our wines should be part and transmit the history of our estate, as this history is obviously unique. In today's interconnected world, wines are more and more uniform, but we are committed to elaborate authentic and different wines, loyal to our personality and our history."

Quite a fruity and floral nose with lots of violets and lavender to the slightly jammy mulberries, sweet purple potatoes and ripe, crushed blueberries. A peppery whiff to the purple flowers and fruit on the medium- to full-bodied palate with firm tannins and a fruity finish. Unadorned, with lovely dryness at the end. From organically grown grapes. No sulfites added.

Aromas of spiced plums and blueberries with notes of spices, dried herbs and crushed stones. Medium-to full-bodied and dry, with chewy tannins and a firm texture. Flavorful finish with notes of blue fruit and a touch of minerality. From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. Drink or hold.

The nose of the old-vine Garnacha Tintorera 2020 Rubificado is redolent of dry figs and dates, denoting high ripeness despite having the same alcohol (14.5%) as the rest of soils' bottlings (Caliza and Dolomitas). It's a heady and spicy, juicy, glossy and ripe Mediterranean red with abundant, fine-grained, slightly dusty tannins. This fermented with 50% full clusters and matured in concrete vats and two 700-liter oak barrels for 12 months

About the Winery
Punset
While the vineyards that form Punset have been farmed by the Marcarino family for generations, it is truly thanks to Marina and her incredible energy that the estate is how it is nowadays. In the 1980s, she decided to pursue organic farming – a demanding choice that was rewarded by becoming the first estate to receive the organic certification in Italy. Her passion for the soil and the environment led her to embrace biodynamics and the agronomic philosophy of Manasobu Fukuoka. From one of the healthiest vineyards in Italy, Marina crafts wines that brim with life, energy, and pure terroir.
Known for the very first certified organic Barbaresco of Italy, Marina continues to show the world that you can preserve tradition and think of the future simultaneously.
