Choosing a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vinicagin.com\/en\/history-values\/\">premium Aragonese gin<\/a><\/strong> means committing to a land, Arag\u00f3n, that has a lot to say in the world of spirits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From V\u00ednica we explain it to you:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What &#8220;local&#8221; means when we talk about premium gin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The term <strong>&#8220;local&#8221;<\/strong> is used so often that it sometimes loses precision. In our case as a <strong>premium gin<\/strong> from Arag\u00f3n, it should mean three specific things:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1. The first is <strong>identifiable agricultural origin<\/strong>: when the gin is born linked to a <a href=\"https:\/\/destilerias-sanvalero.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>cooperative<\/strong><\/a> that produces alcohol from wine, as is our case, at the starting point. This usually involves traceability: <strong>raw material from here and a transparent production journey.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a wine-based gin, moreover, the local begins before the botanicals; it begins in the vineyard, in a base coming from Garnacha wine from the Cari\u00f1ena fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. The second is <strong>nearby botanicals<\/strong>. In Arag\u00f3n the drier registers tend to work well: clean herbals, contained balsamics, fine spices. That character usually fits with a <strong>premium gin<\/strong> that seeks balance and a long aromatic without saturation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. The third is <strong>controlled and coherent production<\/strong>: small batches, process control, regularity and material decisions that sustain a circular logic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The base of V\u00ednica<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>V\u00ednica is born <strong>from wine<\/strong>. When a gin is made with a wine base, the territory does not only enter through the botanicals; it enters from the origin of the distillate. This is our case as a V\u00ednica brand: the starting point is <strong>Garnacha wine alcohol from Arag\u00f3n<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/vinicagin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-14.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2847\" style=\"width:655px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vinicagin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-14.webp 1024w, https:\/\/vinicagin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-14-900x563.webp 900w, https:\/\/vinicagin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-14-768x480.webp 768w, https:\/\/vinicagin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-14-600x375.webp 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>To be clear: this does not mean that the <strong>gin &#8220;tastes like wine&#8221;<\/strong>; it means that the start has another sensation of smoothness and a roundness that allows treating the <strong>botanicals with more delicacy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Circularity process<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Talking about the local also implies talking about the process behind it. It is about the circularity process which consists of the sum of decisions that reduce the <strong>environmental cost<\/strong> of the product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/vinicagin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-10.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2774\" style=\"width:623px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vinicagin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-10.webp 1200w, https:\/\/vinicagin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-10-900x600.webp 900w, https:\/\/vinicagin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-10-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/vinicagin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-10-600x400.webp 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/destilerias-sanvalero.com\/medioambiente\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Destiler\u00edas San Valero<\/a><\/strong> has established itself as a benchmark in the circular economy of the Aragonese wine sector by <strong>revaluing wine industry by-products<\/strong>, making the circular economy its raison d&#8217;\u00eatre from its very conception. That logic translates into a very specific function within the <strong>Aragonese wine sector<\/strong>, acting as an <strong>environmental manager<\/strong> of the winemaking by-products of Arag\u00f3n&#8217;s wineries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, from <strong>V\u00ednica<\/strong> there is a fact that grounds the idea: <strong>100% recycled<\/strong> glass bottle, which means that the aroma does not change, but the <strong>type of coherence of the project<\/strong> does.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, the <strong>cooperative origin<\/strong> fits this way of operating: when <strong>wine and distillation<\/strong> have coexisted for decades in the same production environment, the management of by-products and the search for use cease to be a discourse and become <strong>daily practice<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why choose a premium Aragonese gin<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"698\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/vinicagin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-2.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2640\" style=\"width:413px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vinicagin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-2.webp 698w, https:\/\/vinicagin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-2-613x900.webp 613w, https:\/\/vinicagin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-2-600x880.webp 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 698px) 100vw, 698px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>At <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vinicagin.com\/en\/vinica-2\/\">V\u00ednica<\/a><\/strong>, we know what is good.
