About ALETTA

The vineyards used for this wine have a continental climate influenced by the
Atlantic ocean in winter, causing a cold and dry typical North-western wind
known in the region as “Cierzo”, and by the Mediterranean in the summer. The
grapes come from the best pagos planted with the oldest Garnacha bush vines.
The vineyards used for this wine, 50-75 years old, are located in the areas
known as Pozos de Mata and Aliagares at an altitude of 400—500 meters
above sea level. Yields are 1.5—2 Kg per vine.


The soil that prevails is brown-calcareous and terraced with medium levels of
stones, giving good drainage and fair levels of organic matter, rich in nutrients.
On the other hand, next to the Moncayo mountains, the soil is clay-ferrous and
much more stony. In general, this peculiar soil and climate give this wines
a special character.


Intense ruby-red colour. Pronounced aromas of ripe fruits and a lingering note of orange blossom. Pleasant mid-palate with an elegant character, creating a
lively sensation with ripe, balanced tannins and a very pleasing delicate
aftertaste.
