Discover the Essence of Navarra
Nekeas El Chaparral De Vega Sindoa Old Vines Garnacha is a true reflection of its unique terroir in the Valley of Valdizarbe, Navarra. Crafted by Bodegas Nekeas, this wine represents the pinnacle of Garnacha expression from some of Spain’s most ancient vines, dating back 60 to over 130 years.
Bodegas Nekeas: Guardians of Tradition
Founded in 1990 by eight local families, Bodegas Nekeas has revitalized Navarra’s historical vineyards. The winery’s dedication to land stewardship and heritage ensures that each bottle of El Chaparral reflects both time-honored traditions and modern techniques.
Terroir and Viticulture
The vineyards are nestled between native oak woods, benefitting from the Atlantic’s cooling influence, which yields a singular and elegant Garnacha. Situated at elevations from 450 to 650 meters, these vines produce grapes with a vibrancy rarely found elsewhere in Spain.
The Craft of Winemaking
Nekeas practices meticulous vineyard management and winemaking. Grapes are hand-harvested and each plot is vinified separately to preserve individual terroir characteristics. The wine undergoes a careful aging process in oak barrels to cultivate a balance of flavors and textures.
Tasting Experience: Elegance in Every Sip
