Produced in renowned Spanish bodegas
Our wines are produced within Viñedos y Bodegas Sierra Cantabria, a family-run winegrowing family with roots in Rioja Alavesa dating back to the 19th century . The grapes come exclusively from our own vineyards , which have been cultivated for generations.
The focus is on Tempranillo, the region's leading grape variety, complemented by other varieties where the terroir allows. All wines are produced using selective hand-harvesting, low yields, and precise, terroir-driven winemaking. The affiliated wineries are located in Spain's most prestigious appellations, including DOCa Rioja and DO Toro .

Which grape varieties are used for the wines?
Our wines are predominantly made from classic Spanish grape varieties such as Tempranillo, Garnacha and Viura, especially from Rioja.
In the Toro region, we also work with Tinta de Toro, a regional variant of Tempranillo with a particularly powerful character.
