Not only for the 97 points in the Pe\u00f1\u00edn Guide, but also for the sensitivity with which the story of the gir\u00f3 and the work of Pepe Mendoza Casa Agr\u00edcola has been portrayed. Thank you, Jos\u00e9 Pe\u00f1\u00edn, for your words.<\/p>\n<p>The article captures perfectly Pepe\u2019s quiet revolution in the Marina Alta: rescuing the gir\u00f3, a humble variety, and shaping it into a Mediterranean wine that is deep, fresh, and full of nuance. It highlights Fierroca\u2019s unique identity \u2014 its unexpected fruit character, Mediterranean softness, fine tannin and herbal freshness \u2014 presenting it as a rarity sought after by those who value authenticity and landscape.<\/p>\n<p>This publication coincides with the end of the Fierroca 2024 release: there are no bottles left. But a new vintage will be arriving very soon, continuing this story of territory and attentive listening.<\/p>\n<p>You can read the publication here:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-96781 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/casaagricola.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Fierroca-por-Jose-Penin-ENG-1024x538.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"780\" height=\"410\" srcset=\"https:\/\/casaagricola.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Fierroca-por-Jose-Penin-ENG-1024x538.png 1024w, https:\/\/casaagricola.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Fierroca-por-Jose-Penin-ENG-300x158.png 300w, https:\/\/casaagricola.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Fierroca-por-Jose-Penin-ENG.png 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 780px) 100vw, 780px\" \/>[\/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;Do you want to discover this very special wine?&#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; css=&#8221;&#8221; btn_add_icon=&#8221;true&#8221; btn_link=&#8221;url:https%3A%2F%2Fcasaagricola.es%2Fen%2Fblog%2F|title:Enocultura%20%E2%80%93%20Visitas%20Enoturismo%20%E2%80%93%20La%20Marina%20Alta%20%E2%80%93%20Alicante&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Book a wine tasting at Casa Agr\u00edcola and enjoy our wines directly at the winery.<\/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 css=&#8221;&#8221;]It is an honour to see a national publication dedicate such a generous and&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":333,"featured_media":96779,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[216,213,214,2],"tags":[270,234,232,268],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.4 -
