Arroyo Family Vineyards

Bierzo region, Spain

 

Situated in a valley bowl, totally surrounded by mountains, the Bierzo wine region enjoys a particular microclimate that means high daytime temperatures but with refreshing, cooler nights which are so important to quality wine production 

Victor Arroyo is owner of this brand new society having been partner in a large local winery until very recently, where he was responsible for a number of award-winning wines.  He is the producer of our Spanish Steps Bierzo

The company’s offices and vineyards lies on the ancient camiño to Santiago de Compostella, and pilgrims can be seen passing by on virtually any day of the year
