PRODUCER: BODEGAS PRIMICIA
DO RIOJA - SPAIN


Bodegas Primicia started out in a medieval building in Laguardia.
The Madrid Castaneda brothers founded this winery in 1985, after a long family tradition of vine-growing. At the Vinexpo International Wine Challenge in Bordeaux, they were awarded the first prize, the Grand Prix D'honneur, for their Vina Diezmo 87 Reserve.
Spurred on by this success, Bodegas Primicia placed more emphasis on their cellar of new casks over the following years and have specialised in high quality wines while improving their installations.
