Vineyard Info
The dark, stony alluvial soil is sandy and silty, rich in calcium and magnesium. The 2020 campaign was characterized by a relatively mild winter for the region, a very rainy spring and a few very hot days in the second half of July. The high rainfall for the region, accompanied by a very high risk of disease and a very early harvest, are the great markers of the vintage. In a unique and exceptional way, the harvest began on the same day in both wineries (Toro and Rueda), the 3rd of September. The earliest ever harvest for us in Toro.
