Q

La Traviesa Bio

A

The negocient business run by Vinos Auténticos. All wines are on the premises
of the Valenzuela family of Bodega Barranco Oscuro. The Purulio wines are made with grapes bought from vineyards
situated in the mountain range of “Sierra de La Contraviesa”.
As these are wines made out of the Appellation (Denominación de Origen), it is not allowed to
say in the label the name of the area where they come from: “La Contraviesa” and that is why
there is a word-game and the wines are called “La Traviesa” which means “Naughty”. The image
in the label is from an old film called “Naughty Marietta”.
