Producer Information

Felis Solix Avantis – La Mancha: The original winery, built in 1966, was originally called Bodega del Nieto. But it was not until 1986 that the three children of the founder, Mr Nieto, gave it the boost it needed to become a successful business. The winery was bought by Felix Solis in 2002 in response to the increasing winegrowing potential of the region. Under several years of major investment in improvement of the facilities, the first wines were launched in the market in 2012.

The Solís family work in partnership with 500 family-owned vine growers covering an area of 4,000 hectares. Vines are traditionally grown as bush vines and spaced quite widely apart. However trellised vineyards and irrigation are now allowed under the D.O. rules, a particularly significant development for La Mancha. Along with the traditional Spanish varietals they have succeeded in producing excellent wines from international varietals with a Spanish twist.

Wine Making

The grapes are carefully selected and handpicked and fermented separately at a controlled temperature (22-24 ºC) to ensure the optimum aromatic potential in order to preserve the original aromas and flavours. The assemblage of the wines is essential to produce a wine of excellent quality that retains the characteristics of the terroir.

Tasting Note

A smooth, balanced and easy drinking, with a deep cherry colour and aromas of strawberries and red fruits.

Food Matching

It is perfect to accompany with pasta with light sauces, roast meats, sausages and soft cheeses.
