About the wine
- Marta Ramas and Miguel Fisac had every reason to be optimistic about 2020. Sales were up, the awards and critic scores were piling in. Then Covid came along, and changed everything.
- The top restaurants who proudly stocked their wines all closed overnight. The winery was on the verge of closing down and selling Marta and Miguel’s lovingly handcrafted wines in bulk. Their wines were so good, we knew we had to find a way to save them.
- This is the duo's velvety smooth Tempranillo, handpicked from 30-50 year old vines. Plush and juicy with bags of ripe raspberries and strawberries, with a touch of posh French oak to give it seriously elegant and classy finish - like summer pudding in a bottle.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Marta Ramas and Miguel Fisac
- Don't let their fresh faces fool you! Between them, this couple have enough winemaking knowledge to fill several encyclopedias on the subject and racked up enough air miles to rival even the oldest hands in the game.
- Starting their careers with a prestigious wine course in Bordeaux, the pair quickly graduated on to working amongst the vines of the equally prestigious Saint-Emilion and Péssac Léognan regions. The winemaking bug firmly took hold, leading Marta and Miguel to find themselves working on new wines in Hawkes Bay, Napa Valley and The Cape in South Africa.
- Encyclopedic wine brains full to bursting, the couple decided it was time to pack up what they'd learnt over their years of travel, come down from the clouds and focus on roots. They returned home to Spain where they've been making stunningly intense wines in the heart of the highly sought after Ribera del Duero, ever since.
