Firstly of all, Nekeas is one
of the northernmost vineyards on the peninsula. Cultivation of
the grapes is only possible thanks to the presence of the Sierra
Perdón, wich provides a mountainous barrier protecting
the Nekeas Valley from the cold winds of the Pyrenees.
The valley
is also caressed by the moderating influences of the Atlantic
Ocean (only 70 Km away) and the Mediterranean, whose essence
flows up the Ebro Valley. This climate would be difficult to
find elsewhere on the Iberian peninsula. |
