Valdepeñas

The Valdepeñas wine region extends across the fertile plains of La Mancha, surrounded by limestone hills and crossed by the Jabalón River.

The region's wine production dates back to the 7th century BC, as evidenced by archaeological findings in the Iberian settlement of Cerro de las Cabezas.

Local winemakers maintain traditional production methods in underground cellars carved into limestone, producing both red and white varieties from local grape varieties.

The Valdepeñas wine region encompasses 22,000 hectares of vineyards with strict production regulations maintaining quality standards for all certified wines.

The limestone-rich soil combined with extreme continental climate creates wines with specific characteristics that earned Denominación de Origen status in 1932.
