Overview

Las Vidres is a 0.6 hectare enclosed vineyard located in Villadepera, just a few miles from the border of Portugal. With a gentle, southeastern exposure, this site is planted with 80-90-year-old Doña Blanca rooted in volcanic soils – sandy decomposed grey and white schist with plenty of mica. Las Vidres is a profoundly terroir-driven wine with an intense minerality and freshness. This site is being brought back to life by Alvar, so quantities are small – just a 228L and 350L barrel in an average vintage.
