Heretat de Taverners is also known as “Casas de Colaus”, and it is located in the area called “Partida de Micons” or “La Rambla” in Fontanars dels Alforins.
The winery is settled on the ancient house, a farm built in 1667, which has been restored by the present owners. The wine production is registered in the property declarations of Ontinyent (the winery belonged to this village then) in 1738 and 1782.
The present property has completely changed the vineyards, that hold an area of 25 ha. All of them are planted in trellises. Varieties have been chosen through deep and previous research: local and traditional varieties (such as Monastrell or Garnacha Tintorera) have been respected. Prestigious and quality varieties (such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay and Tempranillo) have been introduced. Other varieties (such as Graciano) have been experimentally and successfully developed.
