Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot. Organic.

Founded by Jose Maria Ruiz in 1987. The original concept was to redefine the approach to wine production in Ribera del Duero and produce a Ribera that perfectly complimented the roasted suckling pig served at Jose Maria. The restaurant opened in 1982 and has the reputation as being the best in Spain for its suckling pig.

The vineyards and new winery are located three kilometers outside Peñafiel, in the sunny enclave formed by the valleys of the Botijas River, a tributary of the Duero River. The mostly hillside vineyards enjoy a microclimate created by the sweetening influence of the Duero River, the dominant west winds that keep the vines healthy and the south facing aspect of the softly rolling hillsides.

Perfect conditions for their 140 hectares of thriving vineyard. Carraovejas is the first Ribera del Duero wine containing 25% of Cabernet Sauvignon in a region where the Tinto Fino grape rules absolute. They were also pioneers in bringing French oak barrels to the Ribera del Duero and to install drip irrigation in the estate, a system that provides the exact amount of water to the vines in a rational and specific manner, improving the quality of the red grape allocated for crianzas and reservas. Almudena Calvo is their eonologist. Until recently only 10% of their production was exported.
