Buy Wine from Bodegas Avelino Vegas
Avelino Vegas winery is located in Santiuste, a Segovia village, and was created by Avelino Vegas and his wife Isabel around 1950. Today the second generation is in charge of the business and even someone from the third generation is already engaged in the company.
Despite the opening project was only for small wine quantities distribution, the volume increase during the following decade both in quantity and in quality resulted in their first Verdejo wine production in 1964. Over time the interests of the winery aimed to production of wines under D.O. and in 1982 they started distributing the firsts D.O. Rueda and in 1983 the firsts D.O. Ribera del Duero. Ten years later they created Bodega Fuentespina, in the same Burgos village name, two years later they would receive the firsts international recognitions in Bordeaux, with a gold medal for their Fuentespina Reserva Especial. Their latest milestone was the foundation of Bodegas Avelino Vegas in 2009, within the D.O. Rueda, where they main production is white wine. Additionally they also have some projects at D.O. Rioja with the brands Condado de la Vega and Palacio Real, being red varieties the prevailing ones. Under V.T. Castilla y León appellation they have Nicte, Condado Real and Vegas 3 brands, and in D.O. Cigales they produce rosé wines with Zarzales name.
Nowadays Avelino Vegas owns 380 vineyard hectares and has around 700 hectares more booked to other wine growers; the average age of the vines is 35 years old but they also have a significant amount of old vines. Their resolute concern on production is remarkable at harvest, carried out at night, as well as in the renewal of the huge barrel stock, that is never more than 5 years old.
Within their white wines Montespina Verdejo stands out thanks to the extraordinary personality of Verdejo grapes and as far as red wine produced in Ribera del Duero is concerned, doubtlessly the queen of the winery is F de Fuentespina, only produced when there is an outstanding harvest such as 2004 and 2009.
The overall production of the group is calculated to be around 8.000.000 bottles, 25% of which is directed to export markets.
