Tasting note

Tasting note

The appearance is lemon gold with a straw yellow tint, giving it a slightly dense impression. The aroma is powerful and unusually multi-layered for Airen. In addition to fruity aromas of apple, pear, and banana, the wine is complemented by nuances of white flowers, chamomile, fennel, grapefruit, and minerals, evoking the natural environment in which the grapes were grown. The taste is savory and has a rich, oily texture. The wine is balanced with lively acidity and a subtle saltiness that gives a crisp finish. It has the firmness of the skin and elasticity of the flesh, just like biting into freshly harvested grapes, perfectly retaining their freshness. This is a wine that has such charm that after one sip you will want another. The aftertaste is long and pleasant, with notes of grapefruit, apple and chamomile reappearing.

Winemaking & technical data

Cultivation
The "Las Tinadas" plot is located at an altitude of 720m, on the road from Tomelloso to Campo de Calatrava.
The Airen vines in this vineyard were planted in 1950 using the pier-franco (own-root) method.
The fact that the vines are grown without being affected by phylloxera is thanks to the efforts of our ancestors and the unique soil and climatic conditions of this region.
The organic cultivation environment is naturally well-established, and ecological farming methods have been practiced since the company's founding.

Vinification
We researched indigenous yeasts collected from fields of old vines, and selected and cultivated two types for use.
Flowering is good as usual, and the summer is hot and dry.
The grapes are hand-picked in small 15kg boxes at the end of September. After careful selection on a sorting table, they are left to macerate at low temperature for 24 hours (10°C).
The juice is then separated using the decanting method without pressing, and fermented at low temperatures.
After fermentation, the wine is racked and aged for 4 months in a 5,000L terracotta jar and 8 months in a stainless steel tank.
We do not use any fining agents and carry out natural brewing with minimal intervention as possible.

*Slight cloudiness or sedimentation may occur over time, but this does not affect the quality.

About the producer

Bodegas y Viñedos Verum

[A young reformer redefining La Mancha]

Located in the vast plains of La Mancha, Spain, in the Tomelloso region, Verum has established itself as a winery showcasing the region's potential to the world, as its name suggests. Winemaker Elías López Montero is the youngest son of the López Montero family, whose family has been involved in winemaking and distilling for four generations. He began his career locally in 2001, honing his skills at Aalto (Ribera del Duero) and Distell in South Africa, before founding Bodegas Verum with his family in 2005.

Elias is considered a pioneer of high-quality wine in La Mancha.
His philosophy is "not to dominate nature, but to understand it and guide it with respect." All grapes are hand-picked and sorted for small-scale production. Yields are kept below 6,000 kg/ha, and sustainable cultivation practices are thoroughly implemented, including green harvesting and the use of cover crops. The vineyards, located at an altitude of 650-750 meters, are made of a soil called "Tosca," which is made up of limestone bedrock and a thin layer of topsoil. The large temperature difference between day and night and the dry climate produce grapes with both concentrated flavor and acidity.

The "Las Tinadas" series is attracting worldwide attention as the new face of La Mancha.
Among them, Las Tinadas Airén de Pie Franco, which is made from old Airén trees, is a product that differs from conventional mass-produced
This wine completely redefines the image of Airén. Aged in clay amphorae and stainless steel tanks, it exhibits complex aromas of citrus, white fruits, and herbs, with a saline minerality. This wine has received high praise from international critics such as Jancis Robinson MW, Tim Atkin, and the UK's Decanter magazine, and is considered a wine that symbolizes the future of Spanish wine.

Verum also expresses the depth of La Mancha's terroir with a diverse lineup, including Las Tinadas Cencibel, a Cencibel (Tempranillo) aged in amphorae.
Each cuvée has a refined structure, based on purity of fruit, taut acidity and minerality.

In 2018, Elías López Montero was selected as one of the "10 young winemakers shaping the future of Spanish wine" by the British magazine Decanter, and in 2021 he was named the world's best wine producer by Germany's Respected by Gaggenau, earning him growing international acclaim.

With a belief in tradition, innovation and authenticity, Verum is now shining on the world stage as a pioneer of the future of La Mancha.
