DEVELOPMENT

Ochoa 8A The 1938 photo is a wine aged for 9 months in used American and French oak barrels.

LAND

The vines used to make OCHOA 8A LA PHOTO 1938 are grown on different plots according to each variety. Tempranillo: Finca Santa Cruz. Graciano: Finca La Pedrera. Merlot: Finca La Milla. Garnacha: Finca El Bosque.

SITUATION

Finca El Bosque (Traibuenas): 38.1 hectares of Moscatel de Grano Menudo, Cabernet Sauvignon and Garnacha. The clay-limestone soil and southern orientation guarantee good exposure to the sun, which reduces the need for treatments in the vineyards, and favours integral, environmentally friendly viticulture. The low amount of organic matter in this soil means that yields are low.

Finca La Milla: This part of the estate extends over 45 hectares with the cultivation of Moscatel, Viura, Chardonnay, Merlot and olive trees. The clay-limestone soil is ideal for white grapes and for the red Merlot variety, which adapts well to the stonier areas, bringing minerality.

Finca SANTA CRUZ: 55 hectares of Cabernet Sauvignon, Tempranillo and Olives. Deep and very draining clay-limestone soil with low yields.

Finca LA PEDRERA: 5.5 hectares of Graciano. Very stony, clay-limestone soil with slight slopes, ideal for this very special and difficult to cultivate grape variety, which allows us to produce rustic and elegant wines.
