Rus Jiminez’s winemaking and farming philosophies are based on the top quality care of the vineyards, attending to the necessities of each plot and searching for varieties that can best adapt to them. Finca el Molar is committed to sustainability and implementing an integrated ecological environment on the farm.
Finca El Molar is in the wine-making region of Manchuela, and currently a free-standing DO since 2004; previously an IGT in the Castilla-La-Mancha region. This high-altitude region is situated between two rivers and boasts a very sunny and dry climate while the Solano wind refreshes the night during ripeness.
Rus Jimenez runs her family farm named on ‘El Molar’ in Albacete. Rus has been running the property since her early twenties, when her father passed it on to her. She works alongside
Luis, her enologist, and a few vineyard hands who live on the property.
Rus prides herself on her passion for minimal intervention methods while keeping sulfur to a minimum. All Finca El Molar wines are certified organic.
