Finca EL RIBAZO is an 11-hectare vineyard located to the West and very close to the urban center of Villabuena, Rioja Alavesa. It consists of several adjacent plots, planted with different varieties between 1985 and 1988. For this wine, only a 5.05-hectare plot of Tempranillo is used, which was the first one to be planted, and ensures us the best quality every year.

A family winery in Rioja Alavesa, owned by Juan Pablo De Simón and Milans del Bosch, great-grandson of the founder of the winery, and it continues to maintain the concept of "wine of payment" that inspired the Marquis of la Solana with purity. And now the 5th generation: Pablo, Jaime, and María de Simón (children of Juan Pablo) are taking on various responsibilities in the company and preparing for the generational handover. New people are renewed, bringing new ideas and current approaches to the business, but always maintaining the concepts we have followed since the founding: family, own vineyards, and respect for quality and well-done work.
