About this Wine

Vino de parcela. La Solana is mainly planted to old vine Listán Negro managed in the traditional cordon multiple or trenzado systems. Just 1.5 hectares, the vineyard faces east, towering over the Atlantic between 350 and 450 meters above sea level. The soils here, a layer of clay over volcanic rock, produce probably the most textural and fruit-forward of Suertes’ single-vineyard wines, the distinctive mineral impact from the 80 to 150-year-old vines and the pure volcanic soils always present and correct.

The fruit is vatted into small, open concrete tanks for a cold soak before natural fermentation is made in seasoned French oak puncheons. Like all the wines here, La Solana is bottled without filtration. It is worth noting that this bottling is indicative of the purer, more mineral style that now emanates from the Suertes’ cellar.

Wines of Spain

With 2.9 million acres of land planted in wine grapes, Spain is the most widely planted wine producing nation and second largest producer in the world. Many styles of wine are produced in the country most of which are based on native grape varietals.

The two most famous regions are Rioja and Ribera del Duero for their Tempranillo production. Rioja Tempranillo (the classic) will be lighter and fresher with red fruit flavours as compared to those from Ribera del Duero that are often deep purple, higher in alcohol with more tannins and intense black fruit character. Rioja is also known for producing Garnacha (Grenache), as well as rich, nutty whites from the indigenous Viura varietal.

In the Catalonia region, Spain is recognized for making a sparkling wine in the traditional method but using native grape varieties. This is called Cava. Priorat, a subregion within Catalonia specializes in making still red blends of Garnacha, Carignan and often Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon in a bold and full-bodied style. Together with Rioja, wines from Priorat have achieved DOCa/DOQ status signifying their quality.

Sherry is Spain’s famous fortified wine which can either be completely dry, lusciously sweet or somewhere in between. This is made in the southern region of Jerez.

Other notable Spanish wine styles include: Monastrell (AKA. Mataro/Mourvèdre), produced in the Jumilla region and refreshing white Albariño and Verdejo from north western Galacia.
