Principal grape varieties

Terroir

• Summers are dry and hot, with a large diurnal temperature variation at the end of summer.
• The vineyard area established in the Pago de Arínzano covers 127.95 hectares, distributed across plots of the Arínzano estate, within the municipal district of Aberin. (via Wikipedia · CC BY-SA 4.0)

• The wines show high colour depth, great quality and aromatic intensity, notable acidity, and a persistent structure and body, with prominent mineral notes.

• The climatic characteristics — with a large diurnal temperature variation late in the summer, combined with Atlantic exposure — result in a long growing season and a slow but sound ripening, ideal for the production of highly aromatic and well-balanced wines.
• The stony soils, with moderate carbonate levels and a loam to loam-clay-sandy texture, contribute to the production of wines with high colour depth.
