Camarolos
The grapes used in Camarolos come from two vineyards: The Cortijo de La Fresneda at 850 m above sea level in the Sierra de Camarolos range which comprises 4.5 Ha of vines planted 15 years ago and the Lagar de Vadillo with 3 Ha of vines at 900 m above sea level planted over 30 years ago on the Cerro del Moro hill in Montes de Málaga. Both are rainfed vineyards on trellises and slopes, which are especially pronounced on the Cerro del Moro (46%). The proximity of these vineyards to the Mediterranean Sea clearly defines the character of this wine.

Tasting Notes:
Bright red fruits, fennel and other mediterranean herbs, chocolate and violet aromas. Granate color and fine tannins that lend pleasing structure.
Vibrant with red berries and spicy flavors, the wine is at once concentrated and fresh. Beautiful silkiness and great finesse with a very fresh finish.
A very gastronomic wine. Camarolos will drink beautifully over the next 10 years.
History:
In the early 90s of the last century, red varieties were planted in an attempt to recover the production of red wines that existed before the phylloxera outbreak. The grapes were chosen according to their suitability to the different soils and microclimates: as a result the Petit Verdot, Syrah, Tempranillo and Cabernet Sauvignon are nowadays grown in the Montes de Málaga hills and Sierra de Camarolos.
