Convincing overall concept at Pago de la Jaraba

Not far from the town of Villarobledo in the La Mancha region, the winery was founded in the 21st century. The name'Jaraba' is predominantly derived from Arabic and means something like 'rich in water or drink', and therefore naturally fits perfectly with the metier of the winery. 

Not only the wine tastes good at Pago de la Jaraba

After the winery Pago de la Jaraba got a new owner, it was fundamentally restructured and also the estate was divided into different production areas. Today Javier Pons holds the leading position. With him, practically a kind of holistic agriculture was implemented. For in addition to the winery, Jaraba also cultivates olive trees with an attached oil mill and operates a livestock farm with its own cheese dairy. The Pago de la Jaraba winery thus provides outstanding enjoyment not only at the wine level. 

Sun-kissed at lofty heights

Let's get back to the wine. Here, the winegrowers benefit from the regional climate, which is spoiled with many hours of sunshine, as well as from the dolinic soil. It was formed in the Neogene period and is characterized by a loamy-sandy top layer. The altitude of the vineyards is also unusual. The vines thrive here at an altitude of 700 to 750 meters. These factors ensure ideal growing conditions for the grapes.

What and how is cultivated at Pago de la Jaraba?

Pago de la Jaraba is mainly planted with Tempranillo, the country's top variety. However, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Graciano are also grown on the approximately 80 hectares. The winery relies on traditional cultivation. This means that old methods typical of the region are used. Thus, among other things, a restrictive pruning, careful thinning and implementation of a green harvest. For fertilization, the winery likes to avoid artificial additives and in this context benefits from the sheep manure from its own livestock.

Here again the grape varieties listed for you:
