Bodegas y Viñedos del Jalón
Bodegas y Viñedos del Jalón operates in Calatayud, Aragón's dynamic wine region in northeastern Spain. The winery draws from the region's distinctive terroir—marked by slate soils and continental climate—to craft wines centered on Garnacha, Tempranillo, and Syrah. Claraval Tinto, a blend of Garnacha, Shiraz, and Tempranillo, anchors the portfolio and has earned recognition from Wine Advocate, Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast, and Falstaff. Las Pizarras, a pure Garnacha expression, reflects the mineral character of its slate-rich vineyard sites. Viña Alarba Volcán showcases Tempranillo from volcanic soils. The winery's focus on indigenous and complementary varieties positions it within Calatayud's tradition of structured, age-worthy reds that balance ripeness with acidity. These wines have been assessed by major international critics, reflecting the region's growing reputation for quality beyond its better-known neighbors.
