The estate manages over 300 small, high-altitude vineyards situated on the slopes of the Sierra Cantabria, surrounding the villages of Villabuena, Leza, Laguardia, and Banos del Ebro. Many vines were planted between the 1920s and 1940s, producing low yields and concentrated fruit that reflects the limestone-rich terroir unique to Alavesa. The philosophy is to craft wines of purity, freshness, and texture that transparently express their origin. The 2021 season began with a cold winter and abundant rainfall. Rain continued during flowering, resulting in looser berry clusters and reduced yields. The summer was warm and dry, supported by stored water reserves, producing grapes of excellent concentration. Late-season rains divided the harvest into two stages: lower sites near Laguardia and Elciego yielded approachable, fruit-driven wines, while higher vineyards near the Sierra Cantabria ripened slowly, producing elegant wines with balance and refinement. Grapes are sourced from 300 meticulously selected parcels on the slopes of the Sierra Cantabria in Rioja Alavesa. The average vineyard size is 0.3 hectares, with an average vine age of around 50 years — some significantly older. The bush-trained vines thrive in limestone soils that impart freshness, precision, and minerality, while high altitudes contribute balancing acidity. The vineyards are cultivated with minimal intervention, using limited copper and sulphur sprays when required, and all fruit is hand-harvested in 15-kg boxes to maintain optimal quality. The Tempranillo grapes were sorted for quality before fermentation in 12,000-litre stainless steel tanks at moderate temperatures. Daily pump-overs extracted colour, flavour, and gentle tannins. Around 10% of the wine underwent malolactic fermentation in 300-litre new French oak barrels, softening the texture. 20% was aged for four months in French oak of varying ages, while the remaining 80% matured for four months on fine lees in stainless steel, preserving fruit purity and enhancing mouthfeel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFood and drinking\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGood with red meat, lamb, game and cheese.

Founded by the renowned La Rioja Alta group, the winery was established in 2000 in Anguix, Burgos, with a mission to produce modern, fruit-forward wines that maintain elegance and structure. The 100-hectare estate integrates an advanced vinification hall, a grand manor house, and over 4,000 barrels of both French and American oak. Winemaker Julio Sáenz brings expertise from La Rioja Alta, crafting expressive, age-worthy wines defined by depth, balance, and purity of fruit. The 2019 growing season was marked by smooth vegetative development and limited rainfall, producing fewer but smaller, concentrated clusters. The optimal skin-to-pulp ratio yielded wines with richness, depth, and vibrant acidity. Officially rated *Excellent* by the Ribera del Duero Regulatory Council, this vintage showcases the appellation's signature intensity and finesse. Sourced exclusively from the 60-year-old vines of *Finca El Otero*, this single-vineyard wine is only produced in exceptional years. The plot sits at 850 metres above sea level in Anguix, Burgos, on gently eroded slopes of dry, non-fertile clay-loam soils. The vines deep root systems contribute structure and complexity, while the site's optimal exposure and poor soils limit yields to produce intensely flavoured berries. Aster follows sustainable vineyard management — reducing treatments, using renewable energy, reusing water, and promoting biodiversity through insect shelters and natural pest control. Grapes are hand-harvested at full maturity. Grapes were harvested during cold morning hours to preserve freshness and underwent a seven-day pre-fermentation cold soak. Fermentation began spontaneously with native yeasts, lasting 18 days before transfer to new French oak barrels. Weekly baonnage during 72 days of malolactic fermentation enhanced texture and complexity.

The vineyards are planted on terraces on the steeply sloping hills of the property: with many valleys and promontories, Romaneira contains several microclimates and various slopes with differing exposures. All of the wines are made exclusively from grapes from the estate's vineyards, a distinctive characteristic of Quinta da Romaneira wines. In 2004, Christian Seely turns his dream into reality, bringing together a group of investors to acquire Romaneira and since 2012 Andre Esteve has been Christian's sole partner Romaneira has benefitted from very extensive renovation, rebuilding and replanting. A new winery was built in 2005, the long dreamed of opportunity of Christian Seely and the original winemaker Antonio Agrellos, now succeeded by his nephew Carlos, to construct the ideal modern and technical winery in the Douro Valley, starting from scratch allowing the estate to produce wines of the highest quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFood and drinking\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGood with red meat, lamb, game and cheese.

Originally a fireworks technician, Quady redirected his creativity to winemaking, crafting his first port-style wine from Amador County Zinfandel. His breakthrough came with the release of *Essensia*, made from Orange Muscat, which became an instant success and established Quady as the leading U.S. producer specialising exclusively in sweet and fortified wines. Today, the winery continues to win international acclaim, using Portuguese varietals and traditional techniques to create modern, expressive dessert wines. Crafted using the same fortification method as traditional Port from Portugal's Douro Valley. A blend of several vintages, averaging five years of age, is matured in small 60-gallon oak barrels to achieve complexity and harmony. Only the finest wines from the best vintages are selected for inclusion in this cuvee, which stylistically lies between a ruby and a tawny Port. The first vintage was produced in 1988, hence the name “Batch 88”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFood and drinking\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGood with cheese and dessert.
