ABOUT THIS WINE
Vallegarcia Viognier is a distinctive white wine from Bodega Vallegarcía, a single-estate (Pago) in the Montes de Toledo region of Castilla la Mancha, Spain. Founded in 1997, the estate is recognized for its commitment to high-quality, terroir-driven wines. The vineyard, situated at 850 meters, features poor, acidic soils and a continental climate, conditions that contribute to the wine's unique character. Bodega Vallegarcía was a pioneer in planting, elaborating, and commercializing a wine made entirely from Viognier grapes in Spain, aiming to create a white wine with notable structure and character.

WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Vallegarcia Viognier is produced from 100% Viognier grapes. The grapes are hand-harvested at optimal ripeness. The winemaking process involves fermentation in barrels, followed by an aging period of six months in new French oak barrels. This approach is designed to develop the wine's structure and aromatic complexity.
