The grape harvest connects us even more to our roots. It is a period in which, with respect and great joy, we receive the fruit that nature gives us after the painstaking, careful and arduous work we carry out in the largest wine region in the world, Castilla La Mancha<\/strong>. This year, despite the persistent heat, the harvest retains the same high quality as always. Quality that is reflected in the 100% authentic grape juice concentrate<\/strong> that is a result of our unique Nothing But Grapes process<\/strong>. Around 20,000 tons of fresh white grapes, red grapes and red grapes with high color and colored pulp are part of the varieties we have received and are processing for the new 2023 campaign. These are native grape varieties<\/strong> that are part of our history and tradition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is the geographical characteristics, together with the richness in nutrients of the soil and the care we take of our crops, that marks the high quality and succulence of the grapes harvested in Castilla-La Mancha. Especially in the region of La Manchuela, a subzone of vineyards that offers us a unique type of grape, such as the Garnacha Tintorera<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
