DISCOVER THE UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS OF THIS TERROIR
Gewürztraminer: Freshness and Precision
With the goal of exploring new dimensions in our white wine, we are studying how this variety adapts to our soils and climate. It surprises with its rich aromas and early ripening, adapting perfectly to the growing cycle of the Duero Valley.
The soil, with its distinct calcareous composition, defines the wine’s character, imparting structure and depth. Within this balance, its lively yet restrained aging preserves the wine’s freshness and refines its nuances, resulting in an elegant, complex expression full of personality.

The character of the soil is transformed into wine
An ideal environment for growing grapes
The particularity of the valley in which it is located, which is narrower than in the rest of the Ribera del Duero, the fact that its slopes are closer together than in other areas, which causes temperatures to drop significantly, and the unique peculiarity and great variety of soils magnify the wines of Abadía Retuerta.
Abadía Retuerta’s winery and vineyard team have focused their efforts on studying these conditions in order to know every detail of their estate and provide virtue to their wines.
