    Cool climate red wine from Asturias

    The VidAs wine line is made exclusively with selected grapes of the indigenous varieties Albarín Blanco, Albarín Negro, Verdejo Negro, and Carrasquín. This small Asturian region has a humid climate with moderate temperatures that give the wines an Atlantic character. The 100 Montañas Carrasquín VidAs is an intense, full-bodied red wine made from the local Carrasquín grape. The wine has a cherry-red color and an intense aroma of ripe red fruit, perfectly harmonized with spicy notes and some subtle smokiness. This results in an intense, structured yet silky taste with soft tannins and well-accentuated acidity. This ensures that it can certainly be aged for several years.

    Delicious with cheeses and red meat dishes.

    The wines are recognized as High Mountain Wines of Heroic Viticulture: a quality seal that acknowledges the hard work involved in locating vineyards on slopes of more than 30%. Due to these conditions, work in the vineyard is done manually, without the possibility of mechanical processing. Only two other regions in Spain hold this distinction: Ribeira Sacra in Galicia and Priorat in Catalonia. That makes the 100 Montañas Carrasquín VidAs even more special.

    Winemaking tradition

    The winemaking tradition, present since the 10th century, was lost primarily due to the rise of mining in the region and because many people left the area to work elsewhere in Spain. However, many residents maintained the vineyards as a sort of vegetable garden, as they had been family property for years. Nevertheless, proper maintenance work was neglected, and the vineyards fell into severe disrepair. Bodagas VidAs is a newly established Asturian winery. VidAs is a family project that aims to contribute to the preservation and development of viticulture in the southwest of Asturias.

    The unique location of the vineyards, the wetter climate with ample sunshine hours, and the moderate temperatures of the region give these wines a strong Atlantic character. Due to climate change in Spain, the previously negative, difficult aspects of winemaking in Asturias are increasingly disappearing: later ripening and the potentially short harvest period are no longer a problem.
