AGOSTÓN White and Rosé are now available, following the success of the reds. The White is a Viura-Chardonnay blend, with grapes picked from schist-covered vineyards at 800 metres elevation, making this the freshest option, with subtle notes of mountain minerals, wild flowers and crisp citrus fruit. The Rosé (recent winner of silver at Vinalies, Paris) is a Garnacha-Cabernet blend, very lively, with a bouquet of raspberries, strawberries and ripe cherries. See photos below. AGOSTÓN rated "Excellent, with 5 stars and 90 points" by Sibaritas, Spain's reference wine magazine in May 2008 and named a couple of months later as one of Spain´s best wines for the current economic crisis, for its very lively nature and excellent price! The AGOSTÓN 2008/09 launch is going well, with the brand being enjoyed in Spain, UK, Germany, Scandinavia, Japan, Québec and the midwest USA. Please contact us for importer details. ABOUT US: Located in the great wine-producing area of northern Spain we´re lucky to have a climate and terroir ideal for making quality wines full of character. Here we have 2,200 hectares of vines, planted with a good range of grape varieties, including the native Tempranillos and Garnachas, as well as international varieties, such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. Our oldest vines date from the year 1906 and help create wines of superb intensity, such as our Agostón range. Our vineyards are located in the scenic foothills of the Ibérico mountain range and we have a wide variety of landscapes and eco-systems within our demarcated area. Under half of our land is taken up by vines, the rest being undisturbed areas of rocky outcrops and forested mountain slopes, dry river beds, wild-flower margins and old almond groves. This makes it and its surrounding area a zone of high biodiversity and an ideal wildlife haven, something which we’re committed to safe-guarding. We produce close to 10 million litres of wine a year, with a full range of styles, including young fresh whites and rosés, intense aromatic reds and complex oak-aged “Crianzas” and “Reservas”. Our winery is modern, fully equipped and our underground maturation cellars have 13,000 oak barrels. We´re constantly entering new markets and hope to develop close, strategic and long-term partnerships with committed importers. As a second line of business, we’re also fully capable and experienced in supplying high-volume tailor-made wines and labels to importers and wine retailers. Working to the highest levels of safety and quality is our priority and we are fully certified to both IFS (International Food Standard) and BRC (British Retail Consortium) level. This gives assurance of our wines to our clients across a range of countries and retail sectors. We sincerely hope you’re interested in our project and we welcome you to join us. ................................................................................................... | ||||||||||||||||||||
