Taste: The Benasal series of the winery is mainly fruity, Fruit-Forward~ Sure enough, just 5-10 minutes after opening, the fruity flavor is already very elegant, and the aroma intensity is definitely medium to high: black currant, vanilla, cream, safflower And the scent of sweet cinnamon. The entrance is almost layered: mountain bark, chocolate, and the aroma of D animals and earthy earth ~ using Spanish native grape Monastrell, combined with the organic planting of the winery, it feels more natural and comfortable ~ "Crux" is a Butterfly Winery The highest level, indeed the highest level of depth, the strongest body, the longest aftertaste, and a very energetic backstage. 12 months of barrel aging increases the left-over fat and smoke levels. James Suckling’s 91 points is an absolute wine. Well deserved!

【300 years of brewing history】
The history of the winery Pago Casa Gran begins at least 300 years ago. The winery also has an ancient wine cellar from that period in the Casa Benasal building. The founder's mother, Manuela Galbis, restarted wine production at Pago Casa Gran in the 1960s. At Pago Casa Gran, the entire winemaking team considers themselves true artisans of the wine world, which means that they are fully committed to two key goals: producing wines of the highest quality and constantly improving their machinery and technology. The entire production model follows strict organic standards and has obtained European certification since 2006, and has obtained the highest level of Delinat organic standards.
【Orgainc.Biodiversity】
And "biodiversity" is also an important part of organic farming. Ground covers do to the soil what skin does to the body: they protect the soil and provide biodiversity. Within the philosophy of Pago Casa Gran, biodiversity is not an end goal, but a strategy for building entire living systems. The vines coexist year-round with cover crops, which are specifically designed for each parcel of land based on vine vigor, density and soil type, so it’s easy to see the same species of flowers and plants throughout the vineyard! !
