A family owned estate of 162 hectares with vineyards, Mediterranean forest, almond and olive trees all with a unique terroir: altitude at 650-700 meters above sea level, dry agriculture, extremely calcareous soil, a Mediterranean climatology with a strong continental influence and vines of 40+ year old vines of native grape, Monastrell.
Casa Los Frailes (“Cals Frares” in old Valencian) takes it's name from the Jesuit Friars who used to live in the Estate two centuries ago (XVII to XVIII). Since then, Casa Los Frailes belongs to the Velázquez family, currently in its 13th generation. Casa Los Frailes was certified organic in 2000, being one of the very first wineries in Spain to do so.
Terroir driven Monastrell, sourced from vineyards on the most extreme calcareous soils of the estate. Fermented in concrete and amphora, this wine respects the traditional winemaking style of the friars who previously inhabited the winery. Expect a fresh and powerful wine with well balanced aromas of red fruits and spice. Certified Organic.
