Bodegas Enguera was founded in 1999 by Pedro Perez Pardo in inland Valencia (region). They currently own 445 acres of vines, primarily Monastrell, Tempranillo and Merlot. They grow Caberent Sauvignon, Syrah and smaller quantities of a variety of white grapes. The town of Enguera (Zone 8) is part of the southern sub zone of the Valencia DO, 35 miles inland, south and west of the Mediterranean city of Valencia. The vineyards are at 2,037 feet altitude.

The mean temperature between April and October is 60.8F which is low for Mediterranean climate. Rainfall during the growing season is 9.8 inches, while yearly rainfall totals are 23 inches. These cooler temperatures, cooler than one would expect for a Mediterranean climate, have a positive effect on the vines.
