Wine-growing area (formerly Finca la Solana = sunny place) in the municipality of Malagón in the province of Ciudad Real in the Spanish region of La Mancha (Castilla-La Mancha). It was classified as the highest Spanish wine quality level Vino de Pago in 2009. The vineyards cover 58 hectares of vines on mineral-rich clay and granite soils. The only grape variety grown is Cencibel (Tempranillo). The area is solely owned by the winery Bodegas y Viñedos La Solana (Florentino Arzuaga). The total estate covers 150 hectares, where olive cultivation is also practised.

For me, Lexicon from wein.plus is the most comprehensive and best source of information about wine currently available.
