Wine from Valdepenas
Filter
Located in Ciudad Real, which is a province in Castile-La Mancha, Valdepenas is a wine region that is surrounded by La Mancha, which is an independent region with a very long history as far as wine making is concerned. Known for mixing red and white grapes, the most well-loved vineyards are located in Los Llanos in the western part of the region, and Las Aberturas which is located in the north or Valdepenas. There are 29,600 hectares of vines in the region.
The continental climate in the region is quite extreme with cold winters and very hot summers. Classified as semi-arid the temperatures can reach up to 104° in the summer and are considered semi-arid. During the winter it is not unusual for the mercury to drop to 14°. Drought is not unusual during the warmer months, while frosts can occur during the late spring and early fall.
The region is located on top of a plateau, and surrounded by lush hills. The soil in Valdepenas has a high lime content, and is on top of a subsoil of calcium carbonate meaning good moisture retaining properties. The soil is poor in organic matter, and very pebbly. It is shallow and dark red in color with a high lime content, which often forms hard crusty layers that have to be broken up to help the roots penetrate.

Double Diamond by Schrader Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon is made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon.
The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon offers concentration, lively acidity, and refined tannins that have become the hallmark of the 2022 vintage. The nose holds notes of black raspberry, toasted cedar, juicy plum, and pennyroyal mint—a Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon signature. The palate is mouthwatering with intricately woven layers of blackberry compote, dark chocolate shavings, oolong tea, and flint. The dynamic flavors carry across the mid-palate in vivid harmony into a long, floral finish. This wine is ready to drink upon release but will cellar well for years to come.
The 2022 Proprietary Red Wine maintains the exceptional quality and prestige synonymous with winemaker Thomas Rivers Brown and the Double Diamond portfolio. This wine is fragrant with mixed berry compote, crushed ivy, iron, and vanilla bean. Full in body and generously concentrated with notes of ripe black fruits, spice, dark chocolate, and espresso framed with silky tannins, food-friendly acidity, and a lingering finish. It is ready to drink upon release but will cellar well for years to come.
Barrels: 54% new French oak, 46% second-use Schrader Darnajou French Oak
Le Jade Viognier is made from 100 percent Viognier
The wine comes from sun-drenched vineyards planted on the best terroir - specially selected for its physical and geographical characteristics - on clay and limestone hillsides called "costières" (coastal region). The vineyards are only a few miles away from the Etang de Thau, a coastal lagoon that is situated between the port of Sète and Marseillan.
The color is a wonderful brilliant yellow with pearl tints. Intense and seductive aromas of ripe fruits, especially apricot, and floral notes with a hint of rose petals. The texture is very harmonious, generous, round and long. The finish is long and balanced with a good freshness.
Perfect as an aperitif, or great with richer dishes like langoustines, smoked or marinated salmon. Great too with guinea fowl in creamy or curry sauce. Serve it also with a broccoli and Roquefort soup or for dessert with a mango and pineapple tarte Tatin. An extremely versatile wine!
