One of the Spanish wine route is done in Ribera del Duero certificate of origin. It is one of the best wine regions in the world. And we do not say it, it won this award (Wine Star Award) in 2012, at a gala in New York organized by the wine magazine Wine Enthusiast.
This certificate of origin includes part of the provinces of Valladolid, Burgos and Soria, housing more than 200 wineries. As it is impossible to talk about all, we indicate below the wineries that have caught our attention in the area of Burgos and enjoy this Spanish wine route.
Portia winery: It is one of the references of the Ribera del Duero (and Spain) architecture level. Its spectacular building, designed by Sir Norman Foster, is a reference in the area. Although it is a younger winery, it is already reaping awards and honors to its work. The 2007 Portia Prima wine was served at the 2010 Nobel prize party.
