Our winery is Pago Casa Gran, located in the Les Alcusses Valley of Valencia, approximately one hour by car from the Mediterranean Sea, totally focused on organic viticulture.
Sometimes called "the Tuscany of Valencia", our growing region enjoys a very special microclimate, combining Mediterranean influences with the more austere continental weather patterns of the English Plateau, located a little further inland.
This, together with the unique geological composition of our soils, makes the Les Alcusses Valley a unique and privileged place for top quality viticulture.
