After working for 10 years with his father at the eponymous estate in La Mancha, Manuel Manzaneque Suarez has started both consulting for other wineries and his own project, ¡Ea!. The project is focused on old vine Cencibel (Tempranillo) from La Mancha, one of the regions with the best price to quality ratios in the world. He only sources fruit from old vineyards that offer excellent raw material.

In 2013, he expanded his range of wines to include two new wines driven by the same philosophy and pride in autochthonous varieties of grapes, called Fatum, meaning Destiny or Fate. He further expanded the range in 2014 bottling a from a uniquely sandy site called Mil Cepas, or one thousand vines.
