A sunny morning in the Valle del Alberche. Just some kilometers away it's snowing in the Gredos. In the background the Puerto de Mijares. #naturaleza #sierradegredos

2019 was my first year in the Gredos. I love the 'Garnachas de Altura'. But I also love the impressive 'naturaleza'. Whether it's about nature or wine or the combination of them, the Gredos is Madrid's Wild West!

Lots of #Snowfall last night in the Gredos. This #garnacha vineyard close to Navatalgordo is covered with snow. #sierradegredos #winecountry

In Bodega Marañones we work mainly in four areas. Today we want to say you more details about “Paraje La Dehesa”, where we find granitic soil with sandy texture at 630 m of altitude. From there we get the grapes to make the ‘Paraje’ wines, “30.000 maravedíes”, “Picarana”.

True horsepower in the #gredos. Like it's been done for centuries.

Lavender, vines, rock roses. Nature is thriving in the Gredos. Small plots like this vineyard between Navatalgordo and Navarrevisca are quite common in #DOPCebreros #SierradeGredos

Sunrise in the Gredos. Here 95 year old vines Albillo Real ready for green pruning on a vineyard between Cebreros and El Tiemblo. Daniel V. Ramos produces his Vino Precioso from these grapes. #sierradegredos

Ha vuelto LALIGA⚽️ y que mejor momento para un #minutoyresultado del estado fenológico de la #garnacha en la #DOPCebreros. Nos encontramos con final de la #floración, #cuajado o #tamañoguisante dependiendo de la altitud, orientación, suelos... Por el momento, todo🆗🤞🤞🤞

The wines from the Gredos are increasingly popular. However, there are still many hectares of abandoned or semi-abandoned vineyards like this one in the Valle del Tiétar, between Sotillo de la Adrada and Santa María del Tiétar. #sierradegredos #winesfromspain

Hoy queremos homenajear a nuestra gran protagonista: LA VIÑA. Viejas viñas de #garnacha y #albilloreal que transmiten a nuestros vinos las características geológicas, geográficas y climatológicas de la tierra de la que proceden 🏞🍷 . #PatrimonioVitivinicola #DOPCebreros

More grape harvest news this time from D.O.P. Cebreros, home of those super hip #Garnacha. 837,000 kilos collected - up 20% on last yr. A dryer year than '19 so very little disease but those pesky wild boar have left their mark by happily munching through the #Albillo.

The #monolith pops up in a rocky vineyard near Navatalgordo, one of the municipalities of #dopcebreros in the Sierra de Gredos, Spain. #monolito

Horrible days in Sierra de Gredos as more than 10000 hectares of wildland is already lost. This is a vineyard between Burgohondo and Navarredondilla, both municipalities of the Valle del Alto Alberche. #ifnavalacruz #Avila #dopcebreros

Today Frank Smulders MW visited #Gredos with a group of winelovers.
