Collection: Bodegas Javier San Pedro Ortega

Javier is the fifth generation of winegrowers in the area of Laguardia, the heart of the Rioja Alavesa subzone. His ancestors from Laguardia and nearby villages have lived surrounded by wineries and vineyards for generations. Their love and passion for their land and their wine have been passed down to the present day.

Javier began learning the trade with his grandfather, and at the age of 17 he made his first wine in his father’s winery. In 2013 he started his own project, and now Javier San Pedro Ortega wines are elaborated facing the slopes of the Sierra de Cantabria, where the winery was built in 2016.

The wines are based on three main ranges; Cueva de Lobos, which is modern, aromatic and fun, made with the youngest vineyards of the family; Viuda Negra, which aims to recover old plots to extract the highest quality from each one; and the Anahi range, from white to semi-sweet rosé, born and made in honour of Javier´s mother. Recently Javier embarked on the production of a Vermouth and a Gin.

Most importantly, Javier’s wines tell a story, to be unique, authentic and innovative. They have to transmit the expression and authenticity of the land, being produced and aged with the utmost respect but with a dynamic and contemporary vision.
