In Yecla it is hot and dry. That is not always easy for growing grapes, but such a climate is suitable for organic work. Mold and rot hardly occur. That is why the Castano family is increasingly opting for the organic approach. This is of course better for the environment and makes the wines tastier. One of the reasons for this is that organic wines contain less sulfites. This is required by law. Less sulfite makes the wine more vulnerable to spoilage, but for wines intended for drinking young, this does not have to be a problem. This white Macabeo is at its best when young. It is a wonderful wine to enjoy in the sun.
