WHO CAN CONTRACT
In 1967 Jaime Rodríguez Salís and Amaya Hernandorena acquired the farm. Since then, the Granja de Nuestra Señora de Remelluri has been recovering its old lands. It was in 2009 when Jaime and Amaya's son, the renowned winemaker Telmo Rodríguez, returned to the project, after recovering historic vineyards throughout Spain.
The vineyard brings together 200 plots of an average surface area of 0.6 hectares spread across three small valleys at the foot of Mount Toloño and a spectacular limestone block 1,272 meters high that protects the property from Atlantic storms. On its slopes, from 800 meters above sea level, the oak forests merge with the first vineyards. This climatic limit situation favors a smooth and late ripening of the grapes.
The cultivation is done in an ecological way, the fields are not treated with systemic products or herbicides and the use of biodynamic treatments allows the typicality of a privileged and historical enclave in Rioja to be enhanced.
