Altolandon

Manchuela — Spain

Altolandon is a family-run winery located in the Cuenca province, at an intermediate point between Cuenca, Valencia and Teruel, at an altitude of 1100 meters.

FROM QUALITY GRAPES TO QUALITY WINES

 Founder Rosalia Molina decided to start this adventure in 1999. Rosalina and her husband Manolo were looking for a high altitude place to plant the first vines. They found it in Landete,
part of the Manchuela Denomination, where they fell in love with the place, its altitude, the cold climate and its poor soils, as well as its charm with a spectacular blue sky. The farm is currently made up of 150 hectares of vineyards and 25 of walnut trees, all in organic farming. They are selfsufficient, all the grapes they make come from their estate,
which is used for all the wines they make.

Inky and purple in the glass, the nose is reminiscent of ribena or cooked blue fruits. The palate is medium body and slightly more rustic, adding notes of earthy spices, dried herbs and a wet stone minerality.
