Historic vineyards in Spain’s Sierra de Gredos wine region have been damaged or destroyed as one of the country’s most destructive recent wildfires continues to burn through the province of Ávila.
“We have suffered huge damage to our historic San Gregorio vineyard, whose wonderful grapes make one of our two single-parcel wines,” co-founder Gearóid Lane told The Drinks Business.
“The vineyards in the Gredos area lie in mountainous terrain surrounded by woodland,” Soto told The Drinks Business.
“The Gredos we know and love no longer exists,” Las Pedreras co-founder and winemaker Bárbara Requejo told The Drinks Business.
Producers told The Drinks Business that purchasing wines from Sierra de Gredos remains one of the most immediate ways consumers can help support wineries as they begin recovering from the disaster.
