Producer : Bodegas Castaño
Region : Spain (Spain), Yecla (Spain)
Bottle Per Case : 12 x 750 ml
"The 2013 Hecula, which comes from 60- to 80-year old non-irrigated vines planted in pure limestone soils, is a cuvée of 12,000 cases. The wine has fabulous texture, a deep ruby/purple color, plenty of chalky minerality mixed with blue and black fruits. The wine is rich, concentrated, quite savory and mouthfilling. This is a stunner that is remarkable for this price. In fact, it is probably too good, because most people that spend $12.00 would never believe a wine could be exceptional. But this certainly is. Drink it over the next several years."

Ramón Castaño Santa, founder of Bodegas Castaño, started making his first wines in bulk in 1950. Pioneer in the use of the Monastrell grape, he extended the family heritage with the purchase of new vineyard sites. With the gradual incorporation of their three children, Ramón, Juan Pedro and Daniel Castaño, they began exporting to international markets.
With 30 years of experience, winemaker Mariano López is the creator of CASTAÑO wines together with the family. His experience and dedication over the years have been an essential part of the path followed to increase quality vintage after vintage.
Two winemaking cellars, fully equipped with stainless steel tanks for a correct maceration process at controlled temperatures. An underground oak barrel-aging cellar with temperature and humidity control, and a warehouse with the appropriate light and conditions to provide the wine bottles with their final rest before their release to the world.
It's important to remember that taste is subjective, and personal preferences play a significant role.
