Méntrida DO

Granted Denominación de Origen status in 1976, the Spanish appellation of Méntrida has a history of winemaking dating back to the early 1500s. Today, there are approximately six-thousand hectares under vine across three distinct sub-zones - Talavera, Torrijos and Sagra-Toledo, and red wines dominate with Garnacha representing the lion’s share of the vineyard. The seasonal temperature variations in this part of Spain are significant with intense summer heat and droughts, replaced by sub-zero temperatures and frosts in winter, hence site selection is key for successful viticulture. In recent years, wines from Méntrida DO have begun to be recognised for their quality, both domestically and on the international stage.
