The wine is crafted from grapes grown specifically in the Derramador Valley, the very location within the Utiel-Requena Denominación de Origen where the winery is situated. Over its history, Torre Oria has garnered international recognition and several gold medals for its wine production.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUtiel-Requena is a historic Spanish wine region in the province of Valencia, located approximately 70 kilometers inland from the coast. The appellation, which gained DO status in 1957, is situated on a high plateau ranging from 600 to 900 meters above sea level. This elevation moderates the transitional climate, which blends Mediterranean influences with a harsh continental weather system. The area experiences long, hot, and dry summers, cold winters with frequent frost, and significant temperature variations between day and night. The vineyards are planted in well-drained soils composed primarily of limestone and clay. Winemaking in this region is deeply rooted in history, with archaeological finds documenting viticulture as far back as the 7th century BC, and it experienced a significant expansion in the 19th century when a railway connected the area to Valencia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhile Utiel-Requena is widely known as the home of the native Bobal grape, this specific 1997 Reserva is made from a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Cabernet Sauvignon is globally recognized as one of the most prominent blue grapes for structured red wines, traditionally associated with regions such as Bordeaux, California, Washington, and Tuscany. It is blended with Merlot, another classic blue grape frequently cultivated in these areas as well as in Northern Italy. The wine is bottled at 12.5% alcohol and carries the official Reserva classification.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Torre Oria","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57237483782470,"sku":null,"price":1000.0,"currency_code":"DKK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/3478\/1950\/files\/generated-885_a174bcf4-2ddb-447f-a41c-e6eb5d71d07e.jpg?v=1788256707","url":"https:\/\/bottleswithhistory.dk\/en\/products\/utiel-requena-torre-oria-1997","provider":"Bottles With History","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
