The early days were filled with hope and excitement as we began to nurture and care for the vineyards, producing our first wines. So many friends \u2013 countless friends \u2013 have walked through our landscapes, savoring the essence of our land through our wines. Every step has been a journey, every moment a stepping stone toward excellence.<\/p>\n<p>With the cherished old vineyards of Gir\u00f3 and Moscatel Romano, planted between 1920 and 1970 in the serene setting of La Marina Alta, and the beautiful vineyards of Monastrell, Macabeo, and Merseguera in Alto Vinalop\u00f3, we are fine-tuning our craft each day, growing little by little, adding new vineyards to our family. All our cultivation is purely organic, done using dry farming and on terraced slopes supported by centuries-old dry stone walls, a legacy of ancient cultures that live on in our project. How deeply we cherish this treasure!<\/p>\n<p>Our home \u2013 Casa Agr\u00edcola \u2013 also boasts an enchanting winery built in 1900, originally an old Riu-Rau of Arab origin. When we first discovered it, it looked quite different from the inviting space it is now. We have lovingly restored it, and now our wines sleep there, patiently.<\/p>\n<p>In the past year, we have made significant strides in our journey. Our small winery has matured from youthful enthusiasm to wise adulthood. With the improvements we&#8217;ve made, we are now a certified winery in the Denomination of Protected Origin Alicante, with many exciting projects on the horizon.<\/p>\n<p>Grateful for the awards (twice named the most sustainable winery in Spain), scores, articles, and recognitions \u2013 signs that we are on the right path, that we pour our hearts into every step we take. The effort to capture the beauty of this charming Mediterranean corner in each bottle. A personal quest, a family project. This winery is vibrant and ever-evolving, with many more wonderful years to come.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;16px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_cta h2=&#8221;Come visit us and learn about our history.&#8221; txt_align=&#8221;center&#8221; color=&#8221;chino&#8221; add_button=&#8221;bottom&#8221; btn_title=&#8221;BOOK YOUR VISIT&#8221; btn_color=&#8221;chino&#8221; btn_align=&#8221;center&#8221; btn_i_type=&#8221;openiconic&#8221; btn_i_icon_openiconic=&#8221;vc-oi vc-oi-calendar&#8221; btn_add_icon=&#8221;true&#8221; btn_link=&#8221;url:https%3A%2F%2Fcasaagricola.es%2Fen%2Fenocultura-winery-visits-la-marina-alta%2F|title:Wine%20Culture%20%E2%80%93%20Wine%20Tourism%20Visits%20%E2%80%93%20La%20Marina%20Alta%20%E2%80%93%20Alicante|&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>We are waiting for you<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_cta][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Since its start in 2017, Casa Agr\u00edcola has gone through many stages in a short&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":333,"featured_media":90273,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[216,213,214,215,226,223,225],"tags":[270,270,268,234,234,250,250,232,232,268],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Looking back and looking forward - CasaAgricola<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Since its start in 2017, Casa Agr\u00edcola has gone through many stages in a short time.
