The Story
Since its establishment in 2011, Bodegas El Paraguas has had a resounding success, surpassing the expectations generated around its birth and its creators. Bodegas El Paraguas understands the vineyard as a family unit. Each plant is a member of a family and, therefore, each member of the family will contribute with some or other things to the family. With this base, Bodegas El Paraguas elaborates each grape variety of each vineyard -with the exception of the wine Fai un Sol de Carallo– separately and according to a method of elaboration that is considered after studying the nature of each harvest and the potential of the grapes before harvest. This winery, located around 400 meters above sea level, is surrounded by almost two hectares of a young vineyard that Bodegas El Paraguas has been working towards the future.
