The vines, and the soil where they stand, need love and care to grow. Their vineyards fill them with a wave of deep, powerful emotions. This helps them obtain the desired results after all the effort and care they put into their work at the winery. They also give special attention to the environment, which has a major impact on the wines—the sun that rises every day, the bugs that live in the soil, the birds that nest in the pines, and even the poppies pollinated by bees.

Casa Sosegada is a wine that pays homage to the wines that used to be made in the farmhouses of Valencia, stored in concrete tanks or partially buried jars.

Tasting
Its suggestive nose interweaves notes of fresh berries with aromatic herbs, flowers and a touch of spice. It's terribly expressive and attractive. The palate is medium-bodied and pleasantly textured, with good freshness, acidity and balance thanks to very fine, sophisticated tannins. Purity and elegance, infinite nuances and great nobility of character.
