Pardevalles, Tierra de León, Spain

Tierra de León: the forgotten region of Castile

Pardevalles is located in Tierra de León, a DO in the northwest of Castile and León in Spain. The region lies at an altitude of 800 to 900 meters and has a distinct continental climate — hot summers, cold winters, and significant day-night temperature differences that preserve the acidity in the grapes.

Prieto Picudo and Albarín

Pardevalles works with two rare indigenous varieties: Prieto Picudo for red — a variety with deep color, fine tannins, and a distinctly spicy character — and Albarín for white, an aromatic variety with tropical fruit and fresh acidity that is found almost exclusively in this region.
