'''Mozota''' is a small town and municipality in [[Zaragoza (province)|Zaragoza province]] 25 km southwest of [[Zaragoza]], [[Aragon]], [[Spain]].

==The municipality== The municipality of Mozota is only 8.7&nbsp;km<sup>2</sup> in area and located in the south-west of Zaragoza district (comarca).

A [[wine growing]] region since Roman times (''Zaragoza'' derives from ''Caesar Augustus''), the whole area is dominated by vines. Traditional grape varieties of the area are [[Grenache]] (80%), [[Tempranillo]] (15%) and [[Carignane]] (5%), producing full-bodied, high-strength ''tintos'' that are widely distributed for blending.

==The town== The town itself only contains about 115 people. It sits on the Rio Huerva on routes south to [[Madrid]] and [[Valencia, Spain|Valencia]]. It also lies in the lee of the [[Moncayo]] mountain range near the Campo de Carineña wine-growing region of Spain.

Many small agrarian communities, like Mozota town, have benefited from the Spanish Government's policy of preserving its heritage. Places of interest include the fortified manor house and battlements, the 12th-century castle, the parish church of [[Saint Mary Magdalen]] and the fortified palace. ==See also== * [[List of municipalities in Zaragoza]]
