Castillo Turis Valencia B.C.L.B. de T. 2006
Castillo Turis Valencia 2006 er en rødvin produceret af B.C.L.B. de T. i Spanien. Vinen er klassificeret som en Denominación de Origen (DO) og kommer fra Valencia-regionen, der er beliggende på den spanske middelhavskyst.
Valencia er et område med en historisk vinkultur, der trækker tråde helt tilbage til neolitisk tid, og fungerer i dag som landets vigtigste eksporthavn for vin. Regionen dækker op mod 18.000 hektar og er inddelt i fire underzoner, hvoraf Clariano i syd er dedikeret til rødvine, mens den centrale Valentino-zone er præget af kalkjorde. Klimaet er udpræget middelhavspræget langs kysten, men bliver mere kontinentalt i indlandet med varme somre og kolde vintre.
Vinen er fremstillet på et blend af Tempranillo og Merlot. Tempranillo er en spansk hoveddrue, der typisk dyrkes i regioner som Rioja og Ribera del Duero, mens den klassiske blå drue Merlot har sin traditionelle udbredelse i områder som Bordeaux og Norditalien. Ifølge producenten er druerne til denne vin udvalgt gennem en særligt nøje overvågning og kontrol af modningsprocessen på vinstokkene.
The history of the wine
Below, you can delve into the history of this wine — its producer, grape, area, and region.
Valencia
Valencia is a Spanish DO on the Mediterranean coast in the eastern part of the country and covers around 13,000-18,000 hectares spread across four subzones: Valentino (the largest, central, with limestone soils), Alto Turia (at 700-1,100 metres altitude, white-wine oriented), Moscatel de Valencia (a warm zone for sweet Moscatel) and Clariano (to the south, red wines). The climate is distinctly Mediterranean along the coast and becomes more continental inland, where warm summers and cold winters dominate.
The area sits within a historic wine culture with roots reaching back to Neolithic times and today serves as Spain's most important export port for wine. The grapes include the characteristic white Merseguera, complemented by Macabeo, Moscatel de Alejandría, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc, as well as red varieties such as Bobal, Tempranillo, Monastrell, Garnacha Tintorera, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. The style ranges widely from fresh dry whites with citrus, apple and herbs, through powerful Bobal reds with ripe dark berries, plum, spices and firm tannins, to the unctuous Moscatel dessert wines with honey, apricot, orange blossom and raisin. The area is known as home to sweet Moscatel wines, a significant Cava production from the neighbouring DO Utiel-Requena, and a growing range of quality wines from native grapes.
