El Terrerazo VP

D.O.P. (PDO) El Terrerazo was born in 2010, as published in the Official Journal of the GV. The legal text  describes every of the plots and practices defining the singularity of El Terrerazo, recognizing it as Vino de Pago. The estate is located in Valencia Region, about 80 km away from the Mediterranean Sea and also 100 km from Teruel, one of the coldest cities in Spain.

DOP El Terrerazo  counts on 87 hectares, around the winery in a single estate or Pago. At an average height of 820 meters, it benefits from a Continental climate influenced by Mediterranean: low rainfall and big night-day temperatures gaps.

The key element defining El Terrerazo is Bobal, one of the most important local grape varieties in Spain, and their job with its clonal selection, canopy management practices (to obtain smaller and looser Bobal clusters) and its recovery of autochthonous yeast, all on 100% organic viticulture environment, UE Organic Certified.
