DENOMINATIONS OF ORIGIN

DO. Almansa

d.o. La Mancha

D.O. JUMILLA

The Merseguera variety is grown for whites, but three quarters of the vineyards are reserved for the red varieties of Monastrell and Garnacha Tintorera, grapes that permit the making of gutsy, dry and smooth wines.

D.O. JUMILLA

d.o. La Mancha

D.O. JUMILLA

The geographical nature of the area makes these lands ideal for the cultivation of the most important grape for this D. O.: the Monastrell grape, that makes up more than 80% of the vineyards. This is a noble, austere and hardy variety, with small bunches, dark in colour and very rich in sugar, which produce reds with an

intense ruby colour. Other varieties are Tempranillo, Garnacha Tintorera, Garnacha, Cabernet-Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah and Petit Verdot in reds. The white wines are produced from Airén, Macabeo, Chardonnay, Sauvignon blanc, Moscatel de grano menudo, Pedro Ximénez and Malvasía.

The Airén variety continues to be in the majority, although Tempranillo is the variety that has shown the most increase and has now surpassed 18,300 hectares and it is forecasted that with the impressive restructuring of wine growing in

the region, this figure will continue to rise in coming years. Other varieties have been planted in recent years, and are becoming more and more extended in the D.O.: Whites: Macabeo or

Viura, Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay; Reds: Tempranillo, Garnacha and Moravia (localised in some districts of Albacete and Cuenca) with a consolidate presence; and Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah, which are becoming more and

more extended.
