The Producer

About Bodegas Y Vinedos Pigar

"Juan's family owns vineyards in and around Requena but after meeting Mariano and tasting the magic the couple found their path as winemakers. You're probably asking yourselves why they have so much Chardonnay and the answer is quite simple. Utiel-Requena is an authorized Cava region and for this reason their family planted so much Chardonnay. That said, they are also working with/recovering some of the region's indigenous grape varieties like Tardana, Tortusi, Royal, and of course, Bobal. They practices organic viticulture and their winemaking is as radical as Mariano's. Pure fermented grape juice, nothing else." - Selections de la Vina

About the Region

Valencia, Spain


Natural wine production in Valencia, Spain, encapsulates the region's vibrant culture, rich history, and diverse terroir. Nestled along the Mediterranean coast, Valencia boasts a sunny climate, fertile plains, and rugged mountain ranges, creating an ideal environment for viticulture. Native grape varieties such as Bobal, Monastrell, and Garnacha thrive in the region's sandy soils and warm, dry climate, producing wines of exceptional depth and character. Natural winemakers in Valencia embrace sustainable farming practices, cultivating their vineyards with care and respect for the land. In the cellar, they employ minimalist techniques, allowing the grapes to ferment spontaneously with native yeasts and minimizing the use of sulfur to preserve the wine's natural flavors and aromas. The resulting wines are a true expression of Valencia's terroir, with vibrant fruit flavors, lively acidity, and a sense of place that reflects the region's coastal breezes and Mediterranean sunshine. Whether enjoyed with local seafood dishes or savored on their own, natural wines from Valencia offer a taste of Spain's winemaking heritage and a glimpse into the future of sustainable viticulture.
