HISTORY

The winery makes all its wines with vineyards varietal tempranillo of exceptional quality between 20 to 60 years old vines, all of them not further than 2 miles away from the winemaking building.

LA BODEGA

Viyuela dedicates all its effort to produce high quality wines. In that way a rigorous control is done throughout the making, checking each grapevine separately, inspecting and selecting the grapes during harvest and once more at the beginning of the winemaking process at the winery entry.

All the equipment used during the winemaking is also carefully controlled by our oenologist and winemakers. Viyuela use high technology equipment only. Each fermentation tank has automatic and independent temperature control to reach a perfect and guided fermentation.

The ageing is done in new oak barrels 70% french and 30% american. All barrels are renewed every three years.

During its first year in the market, teh winery has received 3 awards in the three competitions that it has participated on: GOLD MEDAL Mondial de Vins de Bruselas, GOLD MEDAL Mundis vini de Alemania and SILVER MEDAL at Salón Internacional del Vino Madrid. Thereafter, Viyuela has been participated in all the important international competitions, and has received prices in all of them.
