Middle-of-the road and respectable but hardly a head-turner Producer Information Vizcarra Wineries in Ribera del Duero the project began in the 1980s; At that time, Jos Manuel Vizcarra Aguado was one of the pioneers in planting vineyards, when no one was still betting on the Ribera area. In 1991 the winery was founded; His son Juan Carlos Vizcarra follows in the footsteps of his father, producing the first young wines and later the crianza red wine from Bodegas Vizcarra. In 2007, they inaugurated the new facilities in which the entire production and aging process (vatting, pressing, pumping over and racking) are carried out by gravity. By avoiding the use of bombs, they achieve a higher concentration of aromas and the tannins that are extracted are much more elegant. Currently, Juan Carlos, the winery’s oenologist, researches and produces microwinifications of grapes from old plots. The 35 hectares of Tinto Fino, with very low yields and following guidelines of great respect for the environment, are in a glass and trellis formation, together with one hectare of Merlot and plantations of other foreign varieties. All of them are the pillar for the winification of great wines. Before entering the winery, 100% of the grapes harvested go through the selection table. The result is elegant wines with personality, such as the Senda de Oro red wine from Vizcarra Wineries . Great wines with excellent value for money.
