Tardana is a variety native to this region, grown en vaso (bush vines) averaging 50 years of age located in the heart of Utiel-Requena on clay-calcareous soils with some river stones. The grapes are hand-harvested, destemmed and direct-pressed to ferment in concrete tanks. After primary fermentation, the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation and aging in concrete and clay tinaja before bottling with a small dose of SO2. 11% abv
Pale, bright yellow in color. Aromas of pear and stone fruit, with herbaceous notes of undergrowth. Elegant yet vibrant on the palate. Good acidity that preserves the fruit's flavor.
Founded in 1945 by Francisco Martinez Bermell on the site of an old bodega originally built in 1870, Vera de Estenas has been crafting wines from their 47 hectares of estate fruit since their inception. Situated at roughly 800m elevation near the mouth of the Estenas river near the foot of the Sierra del Remedio mountains, their en vaso trained vineyards run northwest to southeast along a broad swath of calcareous clay and alluvial soils. Summer brings scorching heat, but a cooling wind called the Solano brings relief from the Mediterranean Sea, and nighttime temperatures drop substantially due to the high elevation which helps to preserve acidity in the grapes. Under the current leadership of Felix Martinez, Vera de Estenas is producing some of the region’s most compelling wines from Bobal
vines as old as 100 years. The Tardana grape variety is another native of this region, more recently for winemaking but originally as a table grape for general consumption. White wines make up less than 6% of UtielRequena production, but Tardana is well suited to this climate, ripening slowly to produce a wine of singular character representing this high mountain valley D.O.
