History

Les Useres wine cellar is located in the beautiful region of Alcalaten (Castellon), in an area situated between the last foothills of Peñagolosa and Rambla de la Viuda, which form a small valley with an ideal climate for growing grapevines.

The wine cellar’s origins date back to 1960. Although in its foundation it was one of the smallest wine cellars in the area, the continuous effort, a lot of perseverance and patience, an ongoing investment and a willingness to do things right have kept it alive until today, after overcoming the difficulties of the varietal conversion of the old direct-producer hybrid vines in the province of Castellon.

Today, the society is formed by 86 vine grower members who cultivate the vines of a total of 135 acres of vineyard. These vines produce different varieties of grapes that are the base of their genuine wines.

Les Useres wine cellar wants to honour the route 33 (40° 13 ’ 39 ’’ N, 0° 4 ’ 49 ’’ O) with these wines. A route where different aromas of land and thyme, millenary olive trees, carobs, fig and almond trees, pines and holm oaks, of estates, hermitages and Arab castles, of the sacred “El Penyagolosa” mountain, the Romeria pilgrimages, the templar knights, the Cathars and nomad shepherds and pilgrims merge. The route 33 connects you with nature, with land and history.
