The Fern°ndez Rivera family has always been inspired by the great estates of Bordeaux. In 1987, they planted 180 hectares of Tempranillo along the Duero River in the province of Burgos, a northerly and colder part of Ribera del Duero. In true ch¢teau style, Condado de Haza was built at the heart of the vineyards, A commitment to excellence backed by tradition was infused into everything when establishing Condado de Haza. Starting from scratch by boring into a hillside, the family built an aging room 30m below the vineyard. A 200m tunnel was excavated in order to create a chamber that would maintain the ideal natural temperature and humidity for cellaring wine. Only produced in the very best vintages, Alenza – a contraction of the names of Alejandro and Esperanza – is proclaimed as the most traditional of all the estates’ wines, being the only one going through traditional whole-cluster fermentation. Condado de Haza is committed exclusively to Tempranillo made from the estate-owned vineyards that produce bold wines with amazing complexity and class. The wines of the estate are a great value from Ribera del Duero and the culmination of the Fern°ndez family’s commitment to producing exceptional and unique Tempranillo wines.
