The 5,000 + hectares of the vineyard are located in the 14 towns of the Region at the bottom of the Algairén and the Pecos mountain ranges, between the Huerva and Jalón rivers, at heights of between 320 and 850 metres above sea level.
Their wines are produced based on three fundamental aspects that form the essence of each wine: the land, the climate and the variety.
On the foothills of mountains the soil is poor with underlying rocks, while on the plains the soil is mainly brownish-limestone or brownish-red settled on top of stony ground. More than 60% of the vineyard is planted using the head-pruning system and on unirrigated land.
The climate is continental with cold winters and very hot summers, the average yearly temperature is 58°F, and the rainfall is 435 mm/year, with May and June being the rainiest months.
The average age of the vineyard is over 40 years old, with yields of less than 6,000 kgs. per hectare. (2.75 tons/acre)
