The Winery

Although the farm gave its first wines there for the year 1999, it was a group of friends who really perceived the great potential of it and sounded Quinta de la Quietud. A dream that together with the current technical team has been modeled and each year becomes a reality through its wines.

In the beginning it had 11 hectares of old vines. In the course of the years 2000 to 2004 another 11 hectares were planted. The rest of the space was arranged for the winery and to maintain the natural habitat. From the beginning, the project was understood as respect for a unique natural environment and an ecological viticulture was practiced based on the use of natural infusions and on the mime to the plant. All the vineyard has ecological certification since 2000
