Celler del Roure is a Spanish winery located in Valencia, in the eastern coastal region of the same name. The estate produces wines under the Valencia Denominación de Origen, working within one of Spain's most historic winemaking areas that has been producing wine since Roman times.

The Valencia wine region benefits from a Mediterranean climate with warm, dry summers and mild winters, along with diverse soil types ranging from clay-limestone to sandy compositions. This coastal area has traditionally focused on both indigenous Spanish varieties and international grapes, with winemakers increasingly exploring the potential of both local and global varietals in this distinctive terroir. The region's proximity to the Mediterranean Sea moderates temperatures and provides favorable conditions for grape ripening.

Celler del Roure currently works with Chardonnay, producing their Cullerot bottling which represents their approach to this internationally recognized white grape variety within the Valencia appellation framework.

Valencia is a Denominación de Origen (DO) located in the autonomous community of Valencia on Spain's Mediterranean coast. The appellation encompasses vineyards in the provinces of Valencia, Alicante, and Cuenca, stretching from coastal plains to inland mountainous terrain. Established in 1957, it covers a substantial area of eastern Spain with diverse microclimates influenced by both Mediterranean and continental conditions.

The region's terroir varies significantly across its geography, from sandy coastal soils to clay-limestone compositions inland. The Mediterranean climate provides warm, dry summers and mild winters, with cooling influences from sea breezes in coastal areas and altitude in the mountainous zones. The DO permits a wide range of grape varieties including international varieties like Chardonnay alongside traditional Spanish grapes such as Monastrell, Garnacha, and Tempranillo. Both traditional and modern winemaking techniques are employed across the region's diverse production areas.

Valencia produces wines across the full spectrum of styles, from light whites to robust reds, with quality levels ranging from everyday drinking wines to more serious expressions. The appellation's size and geographical diversity mean that wine character varies considerably depending on specific location and grape variety. Coastal areas tend to produce fresher, more mineral-driven wines, while inland regions can yield more structured, concentrated expressions that reflect their terroir and elevation.
