  • Bodegas Coviñas
    Bodegas Coviñas Country Spain Region Valencia Appellation(s) Utiel Requena Producer Diego Morcillo Year Founded 1965 Farming Sustainable Harvest Method Manual and mechanical Social Media Instagram: @bodegas_covinas While nearly forgotten now, Utiel Requena was crowned one of Spain’s first DOs in the 1930’s. Approximately 45 miles off the SE coast of the Mediterranean, within the Comunitat Valenciana, here the arid, harsh climate from the northwest welcomes the strong Mediterranean influence of warming wind. The high altitude sites in Requena (1000m) are dotted with poor, organic soils of river rock, clay and limestone, making it the perfect setting for pesticide free farming practices. Utiel Requena is also the home of one of Spain’s most widely planted, and often overlooked red varietals, Bobal. Given the high elevation and acid retaining soils, Utiel Requena is also one of the seven regions permitted to produce sparkling wines brandished with DO Cava. Bodegas Coviñas, founded in 1965, is a union of the area’s most prominent landholders. It was founded in efforts to create a distillery to utilize the abundance of must from their individual wineries. During the dismal times under the dictator, General Francisco Franco, the lion’s share of vineyard production came from unionized cooperatives that employed thousands of landowners. Bodegas Coviñas has always strived to take care of the people of Utiel Requena, paying top dollar for the highest quality fruit - becoming the foundation on which the region survives. Diego Morcillo has been the winemaker at Grupo Coviñas for 15 years. Prior to that, he spent 5 years of work study at Bodegas Faustino in DOCa Rioja.

  • TRIENNIA by Bodegas Portia Triennia Is a Rare and Iconic Wine from the Portia Estate in Spain’S Exciting Ribera Del Duero Region
    TRIENNIA by Bodegas Portia Triennia is a rare and iconic wine from the Portia estate in Spain’s exciting Ribera del Duero region. It is the outcome of a venture that began in the 1990s, when the Martinez family (owners of Bodegas Faustino, a leading producer of wines from Rioja), purchased nearly 400 acres of terrain, enjoying an eastern and southern orientation, in Ribero del Duero. Vineyards were planted chiefly with Tempranillo (known locally as Tinta Fina del País). The name Portia has a dual origin, both as a reference to the seventh satellite of the planet Uranus (representing the pioneer, inventor, creator and artist according to astrology), and the Latin word for a token offering made in ancient times as a symbol of gratitude toward the elements in return for a healthy and abundant harvest. Portia’s spectacular state-of-the-art winemaking facility is impressive. Commissioned by the Martinez family, the project represents the first-ever winemaking bodega designed by internationally famed architect Norman Foster, head of the award-winning London-based design team, Foster + Partners. PRODUCTION AREA Country: Spain Region: Ribera del Duero The grapes grow at an altitude of 2,559 feet above sea level on sandy clay soils. Vineyards are planted at an average density of 4,000 vines per acre. The beautiful label design of Triennia is an aerial view of the spectacular winery which was designed by famed architect Norman Foster. GRAPE VARIETIES 100% Tinta Fina del País (Tempranillo) PRODUCTION TECHNIQUES Alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel vats at a controlled temperature of 82ºF.

  • Prospect on Rare Earth Elements and Metals Fingerprint for the Geographical Discrimination of Commercial Spanish Wines
    molecules Article Prospect on Rare Earth Elements and Metals Fingerprint for the Geographical Discrimination of Commercial Spanish Wines Claudia Cerutti 1, Raquel Sánchez 2,* , Carlos Sánchez 2, Francisco Ardini 1, Marco Grotti 1 and José-Luis Todolí 2 1 Department of Chemistry and Industrial Chemistry, University of Genoa, Via Dodecaneso 31, 16146 Genoa, Italy; [email protected] (C.C.); [email protected] (F.A.); [email protected] (M.G.) 2 Department of Analytical Chemistry, Nutrition and Food Science, University of Alicante, P.O. Box 99, 03080 Alicante, Spain; [email protected] (C.S.); [email protected] (J.-L.T.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 6 November 2020; Accepted: 25 November 2020; Published: 28 November 2020 Abstract: This paper presents a novel tool for Spanish commercial wine discrimination according to their designation of origin (PDO). A total of 65 commercial wines from different Spanish designation of origin (Alicante, Bullas, Campo de Borja, Jumilla, Castilla la Mancha, Ribeiro, Ribera de Duero, Rioja, Rueda, Utiel-Requena, Valdepeñas and Valencia) were characterized. The rare earth elements (REEs) content was determined by a high-temperature torch integrated sample introduction system (hTISIS) coupled to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The REE content was used to draw characteristic PDOs radar charts. Results indicated that the REEs fingerprint provides a good prospect to discriminate the different Spanish PDOs, except for Alicante, Castilla la Mancha, Jumilla, Utiel-Requena and Valdepeñas. Finally, for those PDOs that were not properly distinguished, a second fingerprint obtained from Ba, Co, Cr, Mn, Ni, Pb and V content was used for discrimination purposes.
