BODEGA SIERRA ALMAGRERA

Bodega Sierra Almagrera is unique. Our vineyard lies on the same land where more than 3,000 years ago the first vines brought to the Iberian Peninsula by the Phoenicians took root, who ventured to plant them on the coast as they deemed the mountains and upper reaches to be impossible. A place that had been ignored for this type of cultivation for years, makes us the only winemakers in the area and our vineyards the only ones in those lands.

Located in the east of Almeria province, in the foothills of the Sierra de Almagrera mountain range, in the valley of Cuevas del Almanzora, the land is at an altitude of 350 metres above sea level and is dominated by the cool breezes that blow from the mountains toward the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. Its soil is a reddish clay loam, formed from the decomposition of rocks and minerals of the high peaks that held the old silver and iron mines.

The silver roots of the vine feed the leaves and the grapes of our Tempranillo, Shiraz, Garnacha and Monastrell varieties.
