History

Bodega Sierra de Cabreras, founded in 2009, is located in the heart of Alto Vinalopó, in the municipality of Salinas. This winery reflects the winemaking tradition of the DOP Alicante, which is known for its flagship variety, Monastrell, and other notable grape varieties such as Merseguera.

Although the winery is relatively young, its commitment to history and the environment is felt in every bottle it produces. The Alto Vinalopó region, where Salinas is situated, is known for its unique landscape, which combines mountains and plains.

The DOP Alicante provides the perfect framework for wine development, particularly highlighting Fondillón, a aged wine that has been appreciated throughout the centuries in European courts. The winery leverages this historical and cultural wealth to create wines that not only represent its own philosophy but also the heritage of the area.

As the winery has evolved, its focus has always been on the vineyard, reminding us that the true art of wine begins in the soil. The climatic combination of the region, along with its altitude of 500 meters, helps cultivate quality grapes that pay homage to Alicante's winemaking tradition, where vinification techniques have a profound legacy.

Philosophy

At Bodega Sierra de Cabreras, the philosophy is clear: wine is not made in the winery, but in the vineyard. Their approach focuses on capturing the diversity of the Salinas environment while producing high-quality wines.

Their varieties, such as Merseguera in the Carabibas Merseguera and Monastrell in their reds, reflect the winemaking tradition of the region. This dedication to local varieties ensures that each bottle tells a story of its origin.

The winery also strives to provide an authentic representation of Salinas. With a commitment to ecology and sustainability, it aims for its wines to be a true mirror of the terroir, allowing wine enthusiasts to experience the essence of the region through its products.

The vineyard

The vineyard of Bodega Sierra de Cabreras spans over 5 hectares, where grapes thrive optimally due to the area's climatic conditions. The altitude of 500 meters provides a greater thermal amplitude, favoring the ripening of the grapes, which allows for the production of wines with an exceptional profile.

The land, characterized by its diversity, represents a rich palette that translates into the complexity of its wines. The landscape, marked by mountains and valleys, is complemented by the proximity of other wine-growing regions, creating a favorable environment for viticulture.

The dry-farmed vineyards and Mediterranean climate give the region a unique identity, making each visit a visual and sensory experience that invites exploration of the richness of the natural surroundings.
