The 2024 La Casilla benefited from the precision in the harvest dates because of the low yields, so they had plenty of time to pick the grapes at their peak. It has lots of finesse and freshness, contained ripeness and 12.5% alcohol, keeping a pH of 3.58 and 5.8 grams of acidity. The grapes, 60% from limestone soils, 20% clay and limestone and 20% from stony soils, fermented with 100% full clusters and indigenous yeasts in 4,500-liter oak vats, where the wine matured for nine months. This is really elegant and balanced, with the more serious profile of the reds from the vintage, all of them overdelivering for the price asked. It’s subtle and nuanced, floral and perfumed but whispering more than shouting, with notes of red cherries, very good freshness and refined tannins, making it fine-boned. 12,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in June 2025.
Bobal is a red grape variety native to the Utiel-Requena region in Spain, known for its deep color, rustic character, and ability to thrive in hot, arid climates. It produces wines that are robust and full-bodied, with flavors of dark berries such as blackberry and plum, often accompanied by hints of herbs and spices. Bobal wines are typically rich in tannins and have a good level of acidity, offering structure and aging potential. What makes Bobal unique is its resilience; it can withstand the intense heat of the Spanish plains while maintaining its grape quality, making it a reliable choice for sustainable viticulture. The grape's prominence in the Utiel-Requena DO highlights its importance in the region's winemaking traditions, where it contributes to both single-varietal and blended wines, showcasing its versatility and distinctiveness in the world of Spanish wines.
Country
Spain
Ever since the Phoenicians and Romans brought their knowledge of vine cultivation to Spanish soils, the country's culture has grown alongside wine production, with wine being a vital part of Spanish identity and Spanish traditions. Each region of Spain has a wine quite distinct from the others, and it is produced by smallholders and families as much as it is by large companies and established wineries. From the relatively mild and lush regions of La Rioja to the arid plateaus that surround Madrid, grapes are grown in abundance for the now booming Spanish wine industry, and new laws and regulations have recently been put in place to keep the country's standards high. By combining traditional practices with modern technology, Spanish wineries are continuing to produce distinctive wines of great character, flavor and aroma, with the focus shifting in recent decades to quality over quantity.

Winery Notes
Juan Antonio Ponce's wine, crafted from 40–60-year-old Bobal vines in Manchuela, defies expectations with its unique process involving 100% whole clusters and aging in old wooden vats. Its bouquet blends earthy dark red fruits with notes of clove, spice, and leather. On the palate, bright strawberry flavors meet a chalky, firm finish, adorned with lingering hints of spice and earthiness.
