Finca Casa Lo Alto
Requena
Finca Casa Lo Alto was founded in 1796 and is located near the small and beautiful old town of Requena at an altitude of around 700 metres above sea level. The estate spreads over more than 155 Hectares including around 70 Ha planted with varieties such as Bobal, Syrah, Grenache, Tempranillo and Chardonnay.
The estate also produces a considerable amount of Almonds and the different plots of vineyards and almond trees are surrounded by woodland, which are ideal conditions for growing organic grapes. The winery was acquired in 2017 by Bodegas Murviedro (Groupe Schenk). With this purchase Bodegas Murviedro is aiming to become a major vineyard holder in the area in order to fully control their winemaking from grape to bottle. Finca Casa Lo Alto, which is the oldest winery in the area, will however remain an independent Estate and one of the most prestigious in the region renowned for its flagship cuvee “Bobal exceptional”.
