Volver, Single Vineyard, Tempranillo, La Mancha, Spain 2018

92 points Vinous

The project of Bodegas Volver was founded in 2004 by Rafael Cañizares, enologist through studies and viticulturist through his family tradition of four generations bound to the vine and wine.

The pillars of the bodega are based on the repositioning of quality Spanish wines and recovering old indigenous vineyards which, either through low production or lack of generational succession, had been lost.

For this wine the best grapes of the variety Tempranillo are selected in “Finca Los Juncares”.  Single vineyard of 29 hectares cultivated in 1957. Situated at an altitude of 660 meters, in extremely sandy soil (to a depth of 1 metre) composed of small pieces of pure limestone. The sandy surface is mixed with red clay, to a depth of 30cm. Very low production, 1-2 kg per plant.
