DO NAVARRA

Logo of the DO NAVARRA
Navarre has a good time, from unmemorable times, before as Kingdom and now as Jurisdiction, of excellent vineyards and of a few wines of the first quality, fruit of the experience and well to play the role of his vine-growers and butlers. Placed in a geographical privileged area, between Bordeaux and La Rioja, the climate and the soil are suitable for the culture of the grapevine. Two are the distinctive factors of the wines of Navarre: The natural special conditions of the zone: for his typical areas of the Mediterranean slope concerning the Ebro and his tributaries, for his great variety and wealth of shades, for the inclination of his hillsides, for the hours of sunstroke of his lands, etc. All these circumstances make possible the perfect maturity of the grapevines. The thousand-year-old tradition of the culture of the grapevine and his vinificación, where the processes of production, genuine and handcrafted of the wines, have been transmitted from generation to generation.
