Exploration of the Land

Exploration of the Land

At the top of a hill, the semi-buried Bodega Vivaltus blends harmoniously into the landscape, between the castles and the Cuco valley, a haven of wildlife. Winner of the Bienal de Arquitectura in 2010, this architectural gem is more than just a cellar; it is a declaration of respect towards nature. The vinification process, guided by gravity, avoids loss of aromas thanks to the absence of pumps and pumping over. Equipped with cutting-edge winemaking technology, the bodega strives for excellence at every step.

Exceptional Vineyards

The careful selection of La Aguilera, Fuentenebro, Guimiel de Izán, Anguix, Peñafiel, Curiel de Duero, and since 2020, Atauta, demonstrates the commitment to quality and respect for nature.
