The time was the 70's, when José María Ruiz, a young Segovian full of energy and curiosity, was selected to represent Spain at the first Sommelier World Challenge organized by the International Organization of Vine and Wine in Milan.

The culture of wine in Spain did not have the importance or the popular and professional recognition that it enjoys today, nevertheless José María Ruiz and his colleague "Pedraza" earned a proud 5th place amongst contestants from more than 60 countries. What was gained, however, was more than the prize.

This experience was the catalyst that precipitated the fermentation of the ideas that this young man was turning around in his head: his desire to start his own restaurant, with his own idea of what a "cochinillo" cuisine should be, raise his own piglets, andgrow his own wine so all these elements would complement each other masterfully.

In 1991, from the barely 70,000 kilos produced by the first 25 hectares planted, we had the first harvest from our Pago de Carraovejas. As the years went by both vineyard and winery evolved in successive, continuous but well meditated waves of expansion, always ruled by our "quality first" criteria until we reached our current 200 hectares planted.

The winery has now more than 14,000 square meters of modern facilities where tradition and creative innovation go hand in hand with state of the art technology and a deeply ingrained respect for naturalprocesses. Our never-ending search for ongoing improvement is channeled investing in different research, development and innovation projects.
