Bodegas Alto Moncayo is a winery located in the area covered by the Campo de Borja Denominación de Origen (DO, wine quality standard). It was founded in 2002 with the aim of turning it into a world reference for Garnacha wines of the highest quality, prepared from native vine clones.

Aquilon is the crown jewel. A selection of the best: the best vines and the best barrels. A 100% Garnacha wine from 60 to 100 years old vines and aged for 24 months in new barrels. Full-bodied and powerful in the mouth, a wine which is fleshy and fresh, with a great concentration of flavour and excellent balance. It is indeed the very essence of the Garnacha grape.
