Toledo
One of the five provinces which make up Castilla La Mancha is Toledo. The Tajo river crosses from east to west; it is bordered by Ávila, Madrid, Cuenca, Ciudad Real, Badajoz and Cáceres. It has 204 towns and the most populated are Talavera de la Reina, Illescas and Seseña. There is also Illán de Vacas, which is, with a population of 5, the smallest in Spain.
HISTORY OF WINE
The Castillo de Muela, in Consuegra, was donated in 1183 by Alfonso VII to the Order of Malta, in order to reinforce the borders against the Muslims. The Gran Prior of the Order and Duke of Alba, Álvarez of Toledo, was the one who was sent to build the Convento de las Madres Carmelitas Descalzas in the 16th century, while the house of the Tercia were the remains of the old palace of the Great Priors. At the same time, the knights were impelled to develop the vine growing in the towns that made up the area, between them, Tembleque and Villacañas. It would not be until the seizure of Medizábal in the 19th century that the knights marched and the wineries fell into the hands of the nobles. Carranque is also an enclave, which joins the roman culture with wine and La Mancha, it was the discovery of an archaeological site from the 3rd century which evoked the production of wine and oil.
