Terroir & culture
Land of abundance and mystery, Mira Luna has always fascinated, inspired and attracted.
Our wines and olive oils are the expression of the unique terroir of Mira Luna made of clay-limestone earth with shades of red ochre dotted with white pebbles flooded with sun. Perched at an altitude of 350 meters, this area benefits from a very particular microclimate alternating cold nights and hot days with a temperature gradient reaching more than 25°C on the same day.
These conditions favor a slow maturation of the grapes and olives to provide us with a full expression of aromas while remaining fresh.
