ABOUT BODEGAS ARROYO

Third generation family-owned  and operated winery with over 80 hectares of prime quality vineyards ranging from 20 to 80 yr-old vines in the heart of Ribera del Duero, Spain’s most prestigious appellation. Sotillo de la Ribera is located in the province of Burgos in between Roa and Aranda del Duero and as far north as the appellation expands.

ABOUT RIBERA DEL DUERO

Located in Spain’s Northcentral plateau about two hours north of Madrid and nearly 3,000 feet over sea level.  Extreme continental weather with little rainfall, dry summers and freezing winters. Unique soil with alternating layers of limestone and marl. The Tempranillo grape, named Tinta del Pais or Tinta Fina in this part of the country, develops a thicker skin than in neighboring Rioja in order to withstand the harsh weather conditions, which yields more robust wines.
