One Grape, Four Plots

After we caught a glimpse of the olive harvest, we went to visit the Los Insensatos  Winery that is a new project in an old vineyard. 

Most (maybe all) winery tours I have been on offer wines made from a variety of grapes, but here all four wines we tasted were made with Pedro Jiménez (PX) grapes.  In spite of the wines being the same grape from the same winery, they each had a distinct flavor.  The different plots have different elevations from 1500 ft to 2100 ft.  Some grapes were grown on north-facing slope with others grown on a south-facing slope or on the valley floor.  The result were four very distinct wines made in a beautiful location.
