La Granja Ntra. Sra. de Remelluri

La Granja Ntra. Sra. de Remelluri, often referred to as Remelluri, is a historic wine producer in northern Spain’s Rioja wine region. Founded in the 14th century, it is one of the oldest wine estates in the Rioja region and is known for producing high-quality, terroir-driven wines. It was originally a monastery, and winemaking traditions have been passed down through generations. The estate was revitalised and modernised in the late 20th century under the guidance of Telmo Rodríguez, a prominent Spanish winemaker.

Remelluri places a strong emphasis on organic and biodynamic farming practices, emphasising the importance of the vineyard’s natural environment in shaping the wine’s characteristics.

Both red and white wines are produced at the winery. The reds are typically made from a blend of traditional Rioja grape varieties, including Tempranillo, Garnacha, Graciano, and others. The whites are often crafted from Viura and Malvasia grapes.

Remelluri offers a range of wines, including their flagship, “Remelluri Reserva,” which is highly regarded for its complexity and ageing potential. They also produce single-vineyard and limited-production wines that showcase the diversity of their terroir.
