About the Producer:
"This young team chose to set up shop in Arribes del Duero specifically because the technological wine industry had chosen to ignore it completely. Although there clearly were fine vineyards showing true terroir, people had been leaving the region for years and the large wine companies seemed to not know that the area existed. What better place to set up an agrarian paradise?! Old vines were abundant, in good health and not too expensive. These young entrepreneurs bet on their own intuition and hard work and they are in the process are helping to put Arribes on the map. Only 272 hectares make up this minuscule DO, much smaller than many of the large national wineries. There is a wealth of indigenous varietals like Juan García, Bruñal, Bastardo, Tinto Geromo, Doña Blanc and Puesta en Cruz, which are mostly planted above 600 meters altitude. Their ambitious goal is to save these little known local varietals from extinction, and the best way to do that is to turn them into fine wine!"
