Nekeas Cepa Por Cepa Garnacha - A Spanish Gem from Navarra

Experience the Unique Terroir of the Valley of Nekeas

Nestled in the lush landscapes of northern Spain, the Valley of Nekeas is a region renowned for its breathtaking scenery and its unique microclimate. Situated just 30 kilometers from the Pyrenees and 70 kilometers from the Atlantic Ocean, this valley benefits from the cool, crisp influences of the Atlantic winds. The vineyards here, planted at altitudes ranging from 420 to 650 meters, experience significant diurnal temperature variations, which are essential for cultivating grapes with high natural acidity and vibrant fruit profiles.

Bodegas Nekeas: Tradition Meets Modern Winemaking

Established in 1990, Bodegas Nekeas is the brainchild of eight local families devoted to reviving the region’s storied winemaking traditions. With a firm commitment to quality and sustainability, these families oversee every aspect of the winemaking process, from vineyard to bottle. The estate spans over 225 hectares of vineyards and is a pioneer in the preservation of ancient Garnacha vines through meticulous massal selection.

Nekeas Cepa Por Cepa Garnacha: A Symphony of Flavors

Crafted exclusively from Garnacha grapes, Nekeas Cepa Por Cepa Garnacha showcases the vitality and freshness of the Atlantic-influenced Navarra terroir. Unlike its sibling wine “El Chaparral,” which is made from the estate’s ancient vines, Cepa Por Cepa is produced from younger vines propagated from these prized old vines.

This wine captivates with its intense aromas of ripe strawberries and cherries, accented by subtle hints of black fruit and a whisper of orange peel. The medium-bodied palate is underscored by fine, smooth tannins and a bright acidity that enhances its refreshing finish. With no oak aging, its purity and fruit-forward character shine through effortlessly.

Enjoy it with pasta, poultry, or pork, or pair it with charcuterie and grilled vegetables for a perfect al fresco dining experience.
