Monastrell

Bodegas La Purísima currently has 3325 Ha of vines, representing around 60% of the Yecla Denomination of Origin area.

At Bodegas La Purísima, we have almost 100 Ha of ungrafted Monastrell vines, authentic vines which have grown on our land without being planted, bearing witness to the vines of our predecessors and providing us with authentic wines impregnated with the essence of our land.

Monastrell is the variety which is best suited to our land, as it can grow in poor, arid soils, and is resistant to hot, dry summers. Other varieties such as Airen, Tempranillo, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah are also cultivated.

Cultivation with tradition

Quality and Tradition
The majority of our plots are planted using massal selection techniques, with the farmer carrying out all the plantation work and selecting the vines from which shoots will be extracted to plant new vines. In this manner we maintain the tradition and quality of our vines.

Ecological

We grow organic vines
Ecological agriculture is a way of cultivating and caring for the earth without using toxic chemical products, fertilisers, pesticides, herbicides, etc.
At Bodegas La Purísima we cultivate ecological vines, based on traditional know-how, thus recovering lost aromas and flavours whilst protecting and caring for our environment.

The ecological Estio and Valcorso are two wines with all the character and flavour of the best wines of our cellar. Elaborated with grapes from ecological agriculture, both count on certification from the Murcia Region Ecological Agriculture Board, thus guaranteeing the authenticity of the ecological wines.
