20 Aldeas is the latest addition to the list of splendid wines from Condado de Haza. With this premium organic wine, the Fernández Rivera family aims to rejuvenate the company and adapt to new market demands. The wine is named after an historic event during the Reconquest of the Iberian peninsula, when in 1011 the fortified Condado de Haza became the centre of the Comunidad de Villa y Tierra de Haza region with rich lands spread among 20 small villages (aldeas, in Spanish).

About the vineyard[+]

Castilla y León: An Unrivalled Wine Legacy If there is one region in Spain that epitomises the soul of wine, it is Castilla y León. This vast expanse of land, rich in history and geographical diversity, has established itself as the cradle of some of Europe's most prized oenological gems. Since time immemorial, every corner of Castilla y León wine region has told its own story, shaping its wines with character, tradition and an irrepressible passion for excellence. Indigenous Variety and International Recognition The Castilla y Leon wine region is home to indigenous varieties such as Tinta de Toro and Prieto Picudo, which have gained recognition on the international stage. Unique Terroir The continental climate, with cold winters and warm summers, coupled with varied soils ranging from sandy to clayey, gives rise to wines with distinctive character and personality. Prestigious Designations of Origin Ribera del Duero, Rueda, Toro, Bierzo and Cigales are just some of the designations that have raised Castilla y León's reputation in the wine world. A Careful Selection of the Best of Castilla y León Our range spans from robust reds from Ribera del Duero, aromatic whites from Rueda, to more obscure but equally impressive wines from emerging appellations. Each bottle is a reflection of the passion and craftsmanship of the winemakers of Castilla y León.
