Our wine Las Margas garnacha blanca 2021

Bodem, which means “soil” in Dutch, really symbolizes the origin of this winery with Dutch roots. After more than 25 years working and living by and for Spanish wine, the Geirnaerdt-van Ekeris family found in Cariñena the place to which they felt deeply attached. That is why Bodem is not just another winery but a firm commitment to Spanish wine, to the Garnacha variety and, in short, to a dream.

The first wine of our Bodem winery is Las Margas. Las Margas is the beginning of a continuous process in which we have the conviction to improve year after year the previous one, taking advantage of our experience and knowledge. In short, dreaming of a better future.

Las Margas is produced in our new state-of-the-art winery, “Bodem”. The particular interaction between the geology and its harsh climate has produced a soil that offers sufficient nutrients, but also has many minerals.

The Romans transported the Grenache vine to other regions of their empire because of its resistance to the harsh climate, and today we continue to do the same producing a great wine full of character and authenticity, spreading the message all over the world.

A special wine in La Sierra de Algairén

Cariñena is the great unknown outside Spain; the forgotten cradle and birthplace of the Garnacha grape. Its arid climate and rugged soils provide everything this variety needs: lots of sun and just the right amount of minerals. We own 7 hectares of vineyards and control over 100 hectares of family vineyards of local growers in the region of Valdejalón, in the heart of the Sierra de Algairén; the place where the Garnacha grape variety was born.

The climate is continental; cold winters and warm summers with a radical day-night temperature contrast. The characteristic wind of the area “El Cierzo” contributes to the dryness of the climate and keeps the vineyards free of pests.

In addition, the “Margas” soil is a type of soil that occurs on limestone rock in the Sierra de Algairén. With a production capacity of 1.6 million liters, our wines are made with traditional criteria using native grape varieties.
