At the foot of Monte Arabi, the Castaño family tends some of the oldest vines planted in the sun-drenched DO of Yecla. Under the supervision of Eric Solomon and Jean-Marc Lafage, Solanera is a blend of old vine Monastrell (65%), Cabernet Sauvignon (20%), and Tintorera (15%), which is aged in oak for 10 months. Richly flavored with dark fruit and spices, Solanera captures the warmth and generosity of this rural part of Spain.
