Product Information
A Gewurztraminer? From Spain?!
Yes, that was our reaction too. But hey, who needs another Spanish Tempranillo anyway? It turned out that planting Gewurztraminer high up in the foothills of the Pyrenees was a pretty good idea. Our vineyards enjoy warm days but chilly nights, which help this grape variety ripen perfectly. The result is a beautifully fresh and floral wine that has become the bestselling Gewurztraminer in Spain!
Please drink responsibly: The UK Chief Medical Officers recommend adults do not regularly drink more than 14 units per week

Taking its name from the foothills of the Pyrenees mountains, Somontano is an area of rolling hills and chalky soil, with cold, harsh winters and hot summers - offering unbeatable growing conditions for vines. Founded in 1986, Vinas del Vero is the leading producer in the DO. Accounting for 40% of production, it is recognised for making superb wines from both indigenous and international grape varieties.

Regional information
Somontano – literally meaning ‘under the mountain’ – is a little known but breathtakingly beautiful area of Northern Spain, nestling in the foothills of the Pyrenees. The “El Enebro” single estate was planted in 1990. The vineyard lies at 400 metres above sea level, facing north. The microclimate and the nature of the soil are right for the Gewürztraminer grape, which has found its ideal Spanish habitat in Somontano.
Tasting notes
With distinct floral aromas complemented by notes of tropical fruit such as lychee, pineapple and papaya, this is an aromatic full bodied white wine. Paired with oriental dishes, its smooth and silky finish makes for the perfect combination.

Vinification details
Our ‘El Enebro' plot lies just three minutes from our winery. This enables us to bring the grapes in very quickly and keeps the wine fresh, avoiding any loss of the aromas contained in the skins.
