Shop Wine Casa Castillo 'Las Gravas'

2015

A distinctly mineral blend of Monastrell, Garnacha and Syrah.

Las Gravas comes from a vineyard planted by José Maria's father Nemesio, on a blanket of broken stone that covers the bedrock some 30cm below. It's this soil that gives Las Gravas its distinct mineral stamp. 

The vineyard was originally planted with local grapes, as well as Syrah, Cabernet and Merlot, which were grown on trellises rather the local custom of low bush vines. In many ways, it's a vineyard that shows the different trajectories possible on the estate: the previous generation preferred international varietals and French training methods, while Jose Maria is returning to the traditional agricultural style of the area.

The 2013 Las Gravas is a blend of roughly 70% Monastrell, with 15% Garnacha and Syrah. It's fermented using indigenous yeasts and kept in older barrels for 19 months.
