History

  • Criadores de Rioja typifies 21st century Rioja in its careful balancing of tradition and innovation. The winery was established in 2000 with a view to modernize the production of Rioja wines whilst working with the scores of small, top local growers. It produces modern-style wines using state-of-the-art equipment in a fabulously well-equipped all-singing, all-dancing stainless steel winery.

Regional Information

  • The vines are grown in the Rioja central region in the villages of Alberite and Villamediana. The vineyards cover over 100 hectares. The vines are both trellised trained and the traditional bush vines. Planting density of the vineyard is 3000-3500 vines/hectare on soils comprised of gravel and sand.

We really enjoyed this wine, drinking it on its own. Will buy again.

Don't buy if you enjoy rioja

1 stars

We received this wine at Christmas as a present and found it to be awful. We are wine drinkers and enjoy a rioja but this one went straight down the sink.

Pleasant Quaffing Wine

3 stars

Have just sampled and enjoyed a glass (or two!) of this new wine. I find it fruity, light bodied and quite smooth. By the way the closure is plastic rather than ‘natural cork’ as stated.
