UNexpected - (Spain)
Finca Aylés is located in northeastern Spain near Zaragoza and southeastern of La Rioja. The Ramón Reula family started this ambitious wine project in the 1980s, purchasing small estates and vineyards to restore the original and historic Finca Aylés, which dates back to the Middle Ages, back to its former glory. They have the highest qualification you can earn in Spain and do not fall under protection of origin as in Rioja or Ribera del Duero, but are actually a designation of origin in itself. We call this Viños de Pago or in this case Pago Aylés. There are only a few in Spain (15 to be exact). The Finca is the largest family and historic Bodega of Aragón where all vineyards are worked under organic label. They have a unique and extreme continental climate where temperatures can fluctuate to extremes. Together with the exceptional variation in soil and the historical individuality of Finca Aylés, they make this winery an appellation in itself. The wines are therefore of exceptional quality and are a must for every enthusiastic wine lover!
