This unique wine proudly bears the name of its vineyard located in Olivares de Duero, at the heart of Ribera del Duero’s Golden Mile. Las Solanas hamlet is, above all, a spectacle to behold with its idyllic landscape. Located between 740 and 820 meters above sea level, it sits on a steeply sloping plot of land sheltered by a hillside, crowned by a pine forest where partridges, hares, wild boars, roe deer, and foxes live together happily. Its south-facing orientation ensures excellent sun exposure, and its location protects the vineyards from the prevailing westerly winds. In three words: It has everything. Soil, nice weather, and vineyards. And of course, the wine:
