Producer Information

Sierra Cantabria is a leading Spanish wine producer known for its Tempranillo-based range from Rioja and Toro. The company was founded by the Eguren family in 1870, and was previously known as Bodegas Eguren. Fourth generation Marcus Eguren is regarded as one of the country’s leading winemakers.The company is made up of several different bodegas and their associated vineyards. The Sierra Cantabria winery itself is located in the heart of the town of San Vicente de la Sonsierra, in Rioja Alta, and makes a range of classic Rioja wines from 19 vineyard sites totalling 65 hectares (160 acres).Sierra Cantabria also makes a range of single-vineyard wines from the region, including the Señorio de San Vicente wine from the La Canoca vineyard in the Sierra de Cantabria foothills, which is planted with the near-extinct Tempranillo Peludo.Near the medieval village of Laguardia in the Basque Rioja Alavesa zone, the Viñedos de Paganos winery produces single-vineyard cuvées from three plots, which are aged in underground cellars cut beneath the vineyards.
