Sierra Cantabria Mágico proceeds from a small vineyard: El Vardallo (also known as Las Sepulturas) measuring 1.18 hectares, located in San Vicente de la Sonsierra. It is a vineyard sown and grafted after and spared from the phylloxera crisis at the beginning of the 20th century, with a wide range of varieties, both red and white. Among the reds there is 65% Tempranillo, 20% Grenache, 2.5% Graciano, 1% Petit Bouschet and 1.1%, others; among the white varieties is 4.4% Calagraño, 3.2% Turruntés (Rioja) and 2.8% Viura (Macabeo). In 2010, an exceptional year, working right in the vineyard, we speculated that, perhaps by processing all the varieties together we could produce a wine boasting a truly extraordinary expression, one that would thrill us as much as the area in which its grapes are grown. And, indeed, this first 2010 vintage was truly remarkable
