A blend of half Macabeo, the primary indigenous white grape variety of Yecla, and half Chardonnay. The Mac-Chard from Castaño is sourced from Las Gruesas in the north of the DO and El Espinal in the Southeast. Las Gruesas in a terrunyo that is high in elevation (750m) with limestone-rich soils – ideally suited for the growing of Chardonnay which is complimented with warmer and more generous Chardonnay and Macabeo from the sandy soils of El Espinal. Is is fermented aged in tank with a small percentage in oak and is bottled after two months of aging.
