Hinojar del Rey is the village that Antonios grandparents lived in and where he spent the early years of his life living with them helping them. We went to see his Aunt and cousins and they showed us around. Its tiny and a lot of the houses are run down and unliveable. The cute thing of the village is that it is built up on a hill and all around the base of the town, and under the church are private cellars. Built into the side of the hill, the cellars and co-owned by the people in the town. They still produce and store wine in them. We got special access to one which wasnt in use for fermentation, only storage.
