Bodegas Luzon
About:
The winery was founded in 1999 by three families who had been traditionally making wine since 1916: The Alfocea Molina, Martinez Gil and Gil Vera families. The winery was incorporated with a view to making quality, bottled wines, using the experience of almost one century of tradition coupled with cutting-edge technologies applied to vineyards and wineries. In 2001, around 750,000 bottles were exported to the highly demanding European and American markets and today its sales enjoy a sustained increase as a result of the excellent price-quality ratio of the company products. Bodegas Luzon has made significant moves toward environmentally careful land use and now bottles an organic red. The Luzon Estate has approximately 500 ha of vineyards majors in red varietiels such as Monastrell (a local variety), Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah, and white varietals Macabeo and Chardonnay. All are grown with great care endeavouring to achieve in making high-expression wines. To this end, various research and development projects are carried out in collaboration with entities such as, the University of Murcia and the Spanish Ministry of Science and Technology. Brand names: Finca Luzon, Altos de Luzon, Castillo Luzon, Luzon Dulce. The growing international attention and awards would suggest Bodegas Luzon is succeeding.
