| "In the late 1990’s, Toni Sarrion began a one-man crusade to save the indigenous variety Bobal and coax it from obscurity and rusticity to the forefront of truly world class wines. Ever evolving and pushing the quality level forward, Mustiguillo has moved away from the use of overt American oak as seen in earlier vintages in favor of concrete and French oak for wines of finesse & balance, realizing the potential of Bobal from the unique terroir of El Terrerazo.
The Vino de Pago El Terrerazo was granted to Mustiguillo in 2010 - a part of the Grandes Pagos de España organization that is dedicated to upholding and promoting very high-quality single estate wines. At an altitude of 800-824 meters, the estate is comprised of 89 hectares of contiguous vineyards on primarily limestone soils. The climate is Mediterranean with a strong continental influence with drastic diurnal shifts in temperature and contrasting winds from the sea to the east and hot La Mancha to the west .... Finca Terrerazo is from two plots planted in 1945 and 1970 on dolomite limestone soil with chalky sand at 800 meters. The plots are vinified separately by soil type with indigenous yeasts and undergo malolactic in 3500 & 5000L oak vats followed by aging for 15 months in French oak (225 & 500L barrels)."

In 2018, the vineyards suffered from hail, and the wine shows more clarity here, it's more transparent and pure, it has symmetry and very fine tannins. This has to be the finest Finca Terrerazo so far. 29,360 bottles produced. It was bottled in June 2021.
They never stop at Mustiguillo."
