Five wines, a shared approach to understanding the origin
Few family dynasties have left such a profound mark on contemporary Spanish wine as the one led by the Familia Fernández Rivera. Since the late last century, their approach to vineyard management and ageing has influenced various Denominaciones de Origen and has become a benchmark for generations of enthusiasts. This collection, created exclusively for Vinoselección, brings together five wines that reflect this consistent, honest, and recognisable vision, all sharing a common denominator of quality and respect for origin.
Gathering all the projects of the Familia Fernández Rivera into a single collection is about drawing a clear line between region, consistency, and craftsmanship. This exclusive collection for Vinoselección allows you to explore different Spanish wine regions through a shared philosophy: estate-grown vineyards, respect for the grape, and measured ageing aimed at achieving balance and expression. A proposal designed to understand how one family has built an identity without renouncing diversity.
Originating from the vineyards in Zamora, Dehesa La Granja 2023 offers a direct and elegant expression of Tempranillo. Its 12 months of ageing in American oak provide roundness and structure to a wine where fruit and balance take centre stage. An intense yet approachable red that clearly reflects the character of the area and the skilled craftsmanship of the family. With an ecological approach and a vocation closely tied to the vineyard, 20 Aldeas 2023 is born in the privileged environment of Condado de Haza. Made from Tempranillo from estate-owned plots, it refines its profile during 12 months in French oak foudres. The result is a precise, deep wine with harmony that speaks of patient work and respect for the grape. Meanwhile, one of the unquestionable references of the D.O. Ribera del Duero, Tinto Pesquera Crianza 2023, maintains the style that established the winery as an icon. Tempranillo and a minimum of 12 months ageing in American oak barrels create a red with personality, balance, and the classic character that continues to captivate wine lovers with roots and craftsmanship. From vineyards situated at higher altitude, Condado de Haza Crianza 2023 aims for a more relaxed and elegant expression of Ribera del Duero Tempranillo. Its 12 months ageing in American oak is complemented by a wine that improves over time, where fruit, wood, and structure naturally integrate. A serene and highly recognisable interpretation of the house’s style.
The collection is completed with El Vínculo Crianza 2023, a key wine in the transformation of the La Mancha wine scene. Made from Tempranillo from carefully tended vineyards, it embodies the union of family tradition and ambition for origin. An honest, solid, and balanced red that demonstrates the enormous potential of a region that has been unfairly underestimated for years.
