Aliats Enguera Tinto is suitable for social sipping due to its silky character and elegance. However, it also excels as a versatile food wine, particularly complementing lamb dishes, serving as a wine to accompany various herb-infused preparations.

The Marselan and Monastrell grapes were cultivated in the Casa Lluch vineyard, located in the heart of Fontanars dels Alforins at an elevation of 650 meters in limestone-rich, highly stony loam. Following harvest, the grapes underwent a cool maceration for 3 days before fermentation in stainless steel tanks. After malolactic fermentation, the wine matured in new French oak barrels. The 20-year-old vineyard is surrounded by a Mediterranean forest. The bats on the label signify the collaboration with bats hosted in the vineyards, each capable of consuming up to 1000 insects per hour. The label is designed by the legendary comic book artist Neil Adams. This organic wine is suitable for vegans.

Producer story

"Perez-Pardon family, based in Spain, owns Bodegas Engueran, established in 1999, which possesses 160 hectares of high-quality vineyards. Situated in the southwest corner of the Valencia province, the landscape is characterized by mountainous terrain dominated by ravines and wide valleys. The area has long-standing traditions in winemaking, with incredibly diverse soil variations, embracing the concept of terroir, which is also intrinsic to Valencia.

Diego Fernández, the young Valencian winemaker at Bodegas Engueran, completed his wine studies in Montpellier, France, gaining winemaking experience in France, Australia, and California. The Pardon family's vineyards are individually typed and classified, allowing each plot to grow the grape variety best suited to it.

Bodegas Engueran's production is organic, suitable for vegans, and additionally holds a Carbon Proof certification. They've also established the Bodegas Enguera Mediterranean Viticulture Institute to explore the most ecological and environmentally friendly vineyard techniques. Bodegas Enguera stands as a trailblazer in Valencia's wine production, offering wines with an exceptionally good price-to-quality ratio."
