Castilla La Mancha Viticultural Tradition. The Vine: The past, the present and future
It is impossible for anyone who knows Castilla-La Mancha to conceive the region without vine cultivation, one of its greatest economic and social assets, the definer of its landscape, environment, culture and history – an inalienable heritage that has given Castilla-La Mancha recognition as the region with the most vineyards in the world, the results of a tradition that has become the clear identity of this territory.
Albacete, Ciudad Real, Cuenca, Toledo and Guadalajara; provinces in which the vines are deeply rooted. Rooted in history, in the culture,… up to the point that the customs and local festivals, the literature and even some of the religious beliefs are notably conditioned by the vine.
