About the wine

That was a big prank! A small, almost deserted valley at an altitude of 1000m, old abandoned cellars and wine presses, countless, often overgrown plots with different soils and over 140 years old root-like vines, extreme, continental climate with temperature differences of up to 25 °C between day and night, somewhat cooler than usual in the Ribera del Duero. Incomparable, unbelievable, a jewel, you can only rub your eyes in disbelief, but Miguel Sánchez, recognized it and so, at the end of the 1990s, the first major investment flowed into the Atauta Valley in the east of the Ribera del Duero, where the winery today occupies 60 ha about 600 (!) Plots are cultivated biodynamically and produce coveted as well as beguiling, dark wines with an unprecedented elegance and freshness here! A revelation.
