General Information
Habla La Tierra 2024 is the entry-level wine from Bodegas Habla, the winery that has revolutionized wine from Extremadura. A young red wine accessible to any budget and perfect for everyday enjoyment. It is crafted through a blend of three varieties: syrah, tempranillo, and cabernet sauvignon; all from organic viticulture, and it is aged for 4 months in French oak barrels.
What sounded like science fiction 20 years ago is now a reality. Habla is the winery that has brought prestige to Extremadura wine and is the Extremadura winery with the greatest presence in the national market. A brand that has understood a region with a deep-rooted wine tradition and has designed wines with excellent character and typicity, like this Habla La Tierra 2024.
Creators' opinion
Habla La Tierra displays an intense garnet and cherry color with a violet rim, bright, clean, and dense tears. We have sought a bold and different nose: the hints of tomato leaf, anise, and chamomile flower evoke the land where its grapes ripen. The fig aroma recalls the latex that seeps from the fig tree leaf. Fresh and sparkling like eating a pomegranate, with a fresh fruit aftertaste that makes you want to taste it again.
The winery
Habla is one of the most advanced wineries in our country, responsible for elevating the wines of Extremadura to the highest level and erasing at a stroke the dubious reputation of the wines from this region. Its modern facilities and vineyard (200 hectares divided into plots) are located on an estate in the town of Trujillo, with shallow soils composed of slate and granite, good texture, and low fertility, which, together with the continental climate, favor optimal ripening and limited yields.
Bodegas Habla has introduced various innovations in the region both in the vineyard, where it is committed to ecological practices, and in winemaking. For instance, in the vineyard, it has implemented cover crops between the cultivation rows to control erosion, prevent nutritional depletion, and avoid the environmental impact of herbicides and CO2 emissions from tractors; it also employs the shade policy: arranging vegetation on the trellises in a shaded manner, ensuring slightly cooler ripening conditions and addressing the issue of excessive warmth. Additionally, it follows very strict traceability for each of the plots.
As for winemaking, it is committed to minimal intervention, allowing the typicity of the region, the character of the grape varieties, and the complement of French oak to define the style. This way, they create wines of excellent character and typicity, easy to drink, and notable for their original aesthetics.
