1988 the family bought a 30 Ha López. large area. A lot of work came up to the family, since only 1.5 ha. the site was originally designed for wine at all. the remaining surfaces of the mühevo non legwork for growing prepared by vineyards , and arene w largest ere financial investment coupled with much personal imperative. The efforts and sacrifices should pay off in the final analysis. Significantly, they met in 1992 with Michel Poudou, (far right here in image) of a French winemaker at that time already in some places in Spain, for example, on one of the most famous wineries Manuel Manzaneque, as was also active in southern France. Together they decided to step into the professional organic wine production and dare to put himself right to Beginnzu to low, however, to ensure quality higher yields per hectare.

Large Ausdrucksk raft and many personal touches distinguish the wines from this bodega in San Antonio, what s not least in the conversion of the cultivation method and production, based on biological processes their we ITER will refine find Ung. Usually it takes at least four to five years to get official approval as a biological vineyard in Spain. A very important criteria for our involvement with Bodega Chozas Carrascal was the fact that both v on the part of the operator graduation in a natural science, in the form of a pharmaceutical study of the wife of Julian López, Se nora Maria José Peidro, and through the long and cross-country experience of the winemaker Michel Poudou , a renowned French winemaker, enough knowledge in the fundamentals of biological Weinan b out than could be secured adopted.

Together with his brother Martin, he produced on their 6.5 Ha. great southern estate Saint Jean de Minervois one of the best white muscatels Europe, the Domaine de Montahuc and also after the Method Agr iculture Biologique . Strong experience in a good combination with scientific powered Oenology, offer the best conditions for organic practiced viticulture. Another aspect of our decision in favor has inspired the winery, is the great range of cultivated varieties. The following are the production: Chardonnay, Macabeo (Viura), Sauvignon Blanc, Bobal (Bopal) Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Garnacha, Merlot, Monastrell, Syrah (Shiraz) and Tempranillo. We are very pleased with the Bodega Chozas Carrascal an experienced producer to have found for organic wines . Of course, the traditional methods in the vineyard also held high, the house rosé Las Cuatro is under construction, as with the winemakers of other renowned FOURTH English wineries by the short maceration generated.
