El Lagar

El Lagar offers a journey through time, blending traditional and artisanal techniques with cutting-edge methods and state-of-the-art technology. As a starting point, the experience begins with a visit to the impressive 16th-century stone winepress, where its founders crafted their first wines in 1972 as a tribute to their hometown, Pesquera de Duero.

There are few better ways to immerse yourself in Ribera del Duero and understand its historical evolution than through Tinto Pesquera, the Familia Fernández Rivera winery that pioneered Tempranillo winemaking methods and played a key role in the growth of this Designation of Origin.
