We are committed to a model based on the social,
economic and environmental improvement of our territory.
Because defending our wine culture entails defending our traditions,
our land and our people.
At Grupo Coviñas we are committed to
quality and respect for the land,
our growers and the environment.
All for the good of our wines,
which are our heritage and an intrinsic part of our identity.
Our technical director, together with the team of winemakers
and the representatives of each winery within the group,
establish the criteria for selecting the fruit
used to make each of our wines.
This guarantees that the wines maintain
both their own style and a high level of quality.
Coviñas is the leading wine producer in the Utiel Requena Denomination of Origin and our wines are enjoyed in over 30 countries.
We have a total annual bottling capacity of over 40 million bottles across five production lines.
3,500 m2 of storage capacity, a warehouse for 10,000 barrels and a bottle rack for aging
with controlled temperature and humidity and enough racks to accommodate the load of 50 regular stock trucks.
We hold the demanding international quality and food safety certificates according to regulations:
IFS and BRC as well as the Vlabel and Valencian Community Organic Agriculture Committee seals.
V-Label is the seal that Coviñas has trusted to identify its wines suitable for vegan and vegetarian consumption.
This seal belongs to a company based in Switzerland and whose trademark, registered in 1996, is recognized in 27 countries.
V-Label is a simple and reliable point of reference to allow the consumer to make a decision on the basis of his or her philosophy.
The Organic Agriculture Committee of the Valencia Region is the regulating authority that provides the official guarantee of the Generalitat, the regional parliament, certifying organic agri-food products of plant or animal origin, processed or otherwise, produced in the Valencia Region.
It has been accredited by ENAC since 2012, which validates this certification beyond Valencia, allowing it to be recognised in the world’s main markets.
We are located in Requena, Valencia, a region with a long history of producing and selling quality wines.
Our territory is extensive and varied.
Utiel-Requena stretches over a wide plateau between 600 and 900 metres above sea level.
It has a continental climate with Mediterranean influences.
The soils are primarily clay and the average annual rainfall is 383 mm, with 2,800 hours of sunshine.
By virtue of the altitude, there is a large contrast between daytime and night-time temperatures,
which encourages optimum fruit ripening,
as well as guaranteeing the high levels of acidity that are essential
for the production of balanced wines.
Of uncertain origin, many attribute its origin to our country. The Garnacha is favored by the dry climate and the intense heat of Utiel Requena.
The long hours of sunshine together with the low rainfall mean that our wines show great potential both for the production of monovarietals and for forming part of blends for aging wines.
The Garnacha vines in our vineyards grow on sandy soils and are between 60 and 80 years old with very low production ratios.
We find it in the highest and sunniest areas. When grown on calcareous soils, the fruit is used for still wines such as Enterizo Macabeo and Auténtico Macabeo, and when the soils are clayey, for the production of cavas such as Enterizo Brut and Aula Brut Nature.
It is the best adapted variety in Utiel Requena that stands out for its resistance to pests and extreme conditions. It occupies the vast majority of our vineyards, is versatile, aromatic and fruitful and allows us a great variety of different elaborations such as ADNOS, Veterum Bobal de Viñas Viejas, Aula Bobal Tempranillo and Enterizo Bobal Rosado.
It is the second most important red variety in our vineyards that benefits from our continental climate with Mediterranean influences and that produces wines with a low oxidative level and that are part of our most popular and best-selling wines such as the Enterizo Bobal Tempranillo and the Aula Crianza.
