400 Conejos

400 Conejos is a Spanish wine producer located in the region of Castilla-La Mancha, specifically in the province of Albacete. This family-owned winery has been in operation since 1976 and has gained a reputation for producing high-quality wines that showcase the unique terroir of the region.

The name 400 Conejos translates to "400 Rabbits" and is a reference to a popular Spanish folk tale about a group of rabbits who outsmarted a farmer. This playful and whimsical name reflects the spirit of the winery, which is known for its innovative and creative approach to winemaking.

The region of Castilla-La Mancha is one of the largest wine-producing regions in the world, with a long history of winemaking dating back to the Roman times. It is located in the heart of Spain, with a continental climate and diverse soils that are ideal for growing a wide variety of grapes. The hot and dry summers and cold winters create the perfect conditions for producing ripe and concentrated grapes.

The wines of 400 Conejos are made from a variety of grapes, including Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, and Grenache. These grapes are carefully selected from the family's own vineyards, which are located in the foothills of the Sierra de Alcaraz mountains. The vineyards are managed using sustainable and environmentally-friendly practices, ensuring that the wines are not only delicious but also reflect the natural beauty of the region.

One of the most unique aspects of 400 Conejos is their use of ancient wine-making techniques, such as aging their wines in clay amphorae. These traditional vessels provide a more natural and gentle way of aging the wines, allowing them to develop complex flavors and aromas. This attention to detail and commitment to preserving the region's winemaking traditions is what sets 400 Conejos apart from other producers in the region.
