Vineyard Info
Between 1950 and 1967, Cariñena District saw the setting up in various municipal areas of the many wine co-operatives. Maintaining the philosophy of combining individual efforts to create more powerful business structures and ensuring accessibility to viticulture tools to all winegrowers in 1997, GRANDES VINOS Y VIÑEDOS, S.A., was founded with an innovative business model in the winemaking sector. Its mission is to make vine cultivation in Cariñena sustainable and profitable, bringing together a third of the total production of the Denomination of Origin.
At the heart of the interest groups are the over 700 families of winegrowers that belong to the Co-operatives and who work in the vineyards every day as their way of life, and who have accumulated several generations' worth of experience and knowledge unique in the world. The RESERVA Vineyard is more than 30 years old. Soil is clayey with stones in the higher layers. Grapes grown at 600-800m elevation.
