CURIOSITIES: Rosario Vera is not just any winery, but a way of remembering the mother and co-founder of the family label more than a hundred years ago. Its wines are a great embrace of children and grandchildren to the woman who was where it all began and fought against winds and adversity for the love of her land and her family. Her descendants have chosen to pay tribute to her in one of the most famous wine-growing areas in the world, close to the Sierra de Cantabria. The Rosario Vera vines, some more than half a century old, throb in these places of dolmens, fables and medieval walls. From this atmosphere, its liveliest tempranillos are born, releasing a cascade of memories and surprises with every sip.
