The Alicante GURGU Avantpassats wine comes from the mountains of Alicante and has an exclusive and limited production. It is made from 100% of the Giró grape variety, and has been aged for 12 months in earthenware jars that have more than a century of history. This ancestral method allows the wine to complete its life cycle in the same environment where it began: the earth. These earthenware jars, reused from their original use to preserve valuable products such as meat, oil and cereals, have been recovered to pay homage to the traditions of our ancestors.
With Avantpassats, GURGU seeks to honor the memory of their grandparents and ancestors, who taught them to value the land as the source of the most precious commodity: wine.
