Enate

CUTTING EDGE WINERY WHO UPLIFTED SOMONTANO

The reputation of Somontano is largely contributed by this modern winery ENATE. The high quality of ENATE’s wines pushed up the name of the wine area “Somontano” of the recent attention.  

Enate is located in Northern Spain, in Salas Bajas, in the Somontano district. The winery harvests grapes from 400 hectares of own vineyards, situated in Enate valley and around the villages of Salas Altas, Salas Bajas and Cregenzán. The cool winds, which in June, when the grapes start to grow, ensure that daily temperatures of 35°C come down to 17/18 °C at night. The altitude between 550-600 metres above sea level and its low air humidity permit a serious reduction in treatments of the vine, normally required in vineyards. Ecological viticulture is practiced.

ART & WINE OF COLLARBORATION

ENATE is protagonists of this period we are living and not mere spectarors. Each bottle of ENATE is a sculpture of Contemporary Art, and painters such as Antonio Saura, Eduardo Chillida, Antoni Tàpies, José Beulas, Salvador Victoria etc have collaborated in their labels. The artistic patrimony of ENATE grows with the acquisition of works by the old masters and by young artists who have participated in the Enate Award.
