MARTÍNEZ LACUESTA

MARTÍNEZ LACUESTA

At the end of the 19th century, Haro had a railway station, lights in its streets, vineyards in its surroundings, wine in its houses and a building that housed the headquarters of the Bank of Spain. All this made it a focus of attraction for French winegrowers who had been left without vineyards by powdery mildew and phylloxera, but not without their commercial ability.

In this scenario, the history of Rioja as we know it today begins to be written. And when the first words were written, the Martínez Lacuestas were already there.

Martínez Lacuesta was officially established on February 1, 1895.The entrepreneurial and commercial spirit of Eloy Martínez and the pioneering and restless character of his son Félix Martínez Lacuesta converge.

Beyond a building, a winery represents the journey through history that the wines and brands that are produced there have starred in.

The point that has been reached, what is happening today, is not only a reflection of current techniques, but of the path that has been traced to reach them. From the path of evolution.
