Producer Profile:

Monte la Reina is a young, modern and dynamic winery, formed by a multidisciplinary team ready to give the best of themselves to offer the best product. They believe in innovation and are fully involved in each wine looking for continuous improvement that will satisfy the customers from all over the world. The quality of their products has given them the possibility to reach many corners of the planet. They are currently present in more than 25 countries around the world.

The building of the winery was designed by the architect Jesús Juárez and is located on a promontory of the estate, overlooking the edge of the mountain like a large box whose geometry is in dialogue with the surrounding landscape with the palace nestled in the High hill. The exteriors and urbanization of the winery have been built with materials that meet the condition of the local environment and are present in nature, reinforcing the idea of integrating the architecture with its immediate environment. The winery is half buried in the hill in order to combine the aesthetic aims with the technicians and thus obtain a good regulation of temperature inside the cellars.
