Wineries
Located in the mountainous heart of the most important of the Appellation Rioja wine region, we find the winery that gives our wine its name. Dated as one of the oldest wineries in the area, its origins date back to the 19th century. The winery is integrated into the old buildings of the plot. Tradition and new techniques come together in our winery. From the modern winemaking room that has temperature control where the tanks and equipment are made of stainless steel, to our ageing room, where our wines rest in select French and American oak barrels. Our goal is to make wines that show our differentiated quality, for this we use traditional methods combined with new techniques.
The underground tunnels of the winery, which have been preserved since the Middle Ages. These are underground caves that enabled communication throughout the city in the underground. In this place we can find constant humidity and temperature throughout the year, ideal conditions for resting and improving our wines.
All this work is developed with the experience and extensive trajectory of more than 130 years of work that supports us.

Winemakers
Victor and David Fernández de Manzanos are the fifth generation of a family dedicated to wine´s world, more than 130 years committed body and soul to the cultivation of the vine and the elaboration of quality wines in DOCa Rioja, one of the most relevant appellations in the world.
The Fdez. De Manzanos brothers were born in the land of wine par excellence which have grown between vineyards, wineries and wines, currently are dedicated body and soul to develop the legacy received in 2010 by the previous 4 generations, from that year began a rigorous work on finding the most exclusive terroirs, selection of the best grapes, and overseeing every elaboration in order to achieve its consistent goal: “to share with us your passion, WINE.”
Wineyards
DOCa Rioja has a very particular climate and soils for the growth of the grape varieties from which the wines of great quality and personality are elaborated that distinguish us from the rest of the world appellations. Our vineyards are spread throughout the denomination distributed in different strategic points, this allows us to explore the qualities of each terroir and its singularities, in this way we can make a selection on each plot to produce each type of wine. In turn, the viticulture we practice is sustainable, always respecting the environment.
Terroir
The confluence of the Atlantic and the Mediterranean climate, smooth temperatures, regular rainfall and the air currents generated by our unique wind “Cierzo”, make up an excellent microclimate for growing grapes. In addition, we have different types of soil, among which the three best known predominate: calcareous clay, ferrous clay and alluvial.
All the above together with the different ages of the vines and trellises or bush constitute an ideal ecosystem for the optimal development of our vineyards.
