VINEYARDS
One of the very best assets of the Pablo winery is their vineyards. With
a range of vines that average 30 years of age and some reach up to 100 years
old, the Pablo family has always been conscious of the local clones and
has kept alive the indigenous grapes, mostly Garnacha and the unique Vidadillo
grape. There are some international varietals planted as well in different
plots to complement the native ones.
Viñedos y Bodegas Pablo owns 60 has. All in Almonacid de la Sierra
and there are directly and personally monitored by José Pablo himself.
The vineyards are located at the foothills of Sierra del Algairén
at different altitudes ranging from 550 to 750 meters high. The soils are
diverse; stony deep, pebbles, clay and chalk, sandy, but the common denominator
is dry and poor.
José Pablo’s objective is to stamp the personality and expression
of every plot in its wine. Therefore each wine is vinified separately making
the final coupage at the end of the process to achieve maximum harmony and
expression of the vineyard. The vineyards are ecologically cultivated and
the harvest takes place gradually by plot and varietal as the grapes ripe
to perfection.
