Nestled in the welcoming heart of the Rioja Alavesa, the Bodegas Valdemar winery is a family-owned gem, offering a unique blend of tradition and innovation, that dates back over 130 years. Founded in 1889, this elegant Spanish wine powerhouse combines tasteful craftsmanship with a forward-thinking approach that continues to push boundaries today.
An acclaimed trailblazer, Bodegas Valdemar is responsible for stirring the very foundations of modern winemaking in Spain; their pioneering techniques have garnered the winery well-deserved recognition in various corners of the globe. The bodega, a beacon of modernity in the largely traditional Rioja region, leads the way by returning to natural methods, cultivating vines without chemical intervention, consequently preserving the authenticity of their wine.
The estate itself is a vision of beauty, stretching over 275 hectares of vineyards that mirror the rich diversity found in the Spanish terrain. The lush vineyards produce an array of wine grapes, including Tempranillo, Garnacha, and Viura, each contributing to the characteristic richness of Valdemar's blend.
Within the walls of the Bodegas lives an exquisite array of wines, each crafted with an impressive attention to detail. Their collection ranges from the balanced and fruity flavours of their entry-level 'Conde Valdemar' wines, to the full-bodied and complex blends found in their premium 'Inspiracion Valdemar' and icon ‘Conde Valdemar Gran Reserva’ lines. Each bottle encapsulates the philosophy of Bodegas Valdemar, a philosophy of constant improvement and respect for their ancestors’ traditions and dedication to their land.
Perhaps the most notable Anglo-Spanish joint venture is their establishment of a winery in Washington State, USA. An unprecedented move for Spanish vineyards, cementing Valdemar as an unignorable key player in the international wine scene.
