Description
The "Tierra del Vino" region benefits from a dry continental climate with extreme temperatures. The winters are bitterly cold and the summers dry and hot. Average temperatures do not exceed 3°C in winter but in summer reach 23°C. The region stands at an average height of around 750 m. above the sea level.
The Tierra del Vino region is crossed by many rivers, and consequently the structure of the soil is clearly alluvial. The topsoil is deep, highly permeable and with an excellent retentive capacity, although poor in organic matter.
Wines
The regulations accept the following varieties for Tierra del Vino wines:
- Principal varieties: red: Tempranillo, White: Malvasía, fine grain Moscatel and Verdejo.
- Other varieties: Garnacha, Albino and Palomino
