Producer
Not all of the Duero “ribera,” or riverbank, is Ribera del Duero. Our wines are produced in a specific region where the natural environment is unique and the land is special. Our Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Tempranillo grapes grow close to Penafiel near a gentle bend in the River Duero. In an area surrounded by centenary poplars, our grapes are nurtured to be adored. Here we make our wines. Wines forged from an inimitable climate in a unique location. Wines that stand out for their intense colour, harmonious aromas and mouth-filling meatiness. Tradition and love of wine flow between generations. Years of experience and current-day innovation emerge in the reinterpretation of what is already known and in the continuous search for new experiences. Vega Real holds the secret to producing magical wines.
