Please join us on Thursday, September 21st at 7pm as we finally host one of Jordan's favorite wineries, Alto Moncayo! Located in the area covered by the Campo de Borja DO. It was founded in 2002 with the aim of turning it into a world reference for Garnacha wines of the highest quality, prepared from native vine clones.Chef Raphael has put together a great menu to pair with these incredible wines!

The winery was founded in 2002 using some of the oldest vines in the area. Currently, it produces wine from 92 hectares of native mountain strains of Garnacha, planted decades ago on the slopes of the Moncayo foothills in unique red clay soil mixed with slate. There is little organic matter in the soil, and it is not very deep. The vines are grown in bushes of native clones oriented towards the southwest. The winery is located in Borja, the heart of the Campo de Borja DO area. It sells its wines under three brands: ‘Aquilon’, ‘Alto Moncayo’, and ‘Veraton’.
