Finca Montepedroso
In the heart of Spain's Rueda wine region, at an altitude of 750 metres, lies the Montepedroso estate – a place where tradition, passion and personality come together. Here, siblings Carlos and Pilar Martínez Bujanda produce a white wine from 100% Verdejo grapes that impressively reflects the terroir of the region.
In the 1990s, after working with their father for many years, Carlos and Pilar decided to start a new project: producing estate wines (‘Vinos de Finca’). Today, the family portfolio includes several vineyards, including Finca Montepedroso. In 2008, the family acquired 25 hectares of Verdejo vineyards in Rueda and began construction of the winery, which was inaugurated in 2012. Rueda is particularly ideal for Verdejo: the cool nights preserve the fresh acidity of the grapes, while warm days promote their aromatic ripeness. The calcareous soil and high altitude further contribute to clear fruit and fine minerality.

Producer
Peter Michael Winery
In the 1970s, Sir Peter Michael came to California as a young engineer and discovered the emerging wine world of California, with some excellent names already drawing international attention.
Roland und Karin Lenz
In 1994, while Roland Lenz was still studying oenology, he and his wife Karin were able to acquire eight hectares of vines on the Iselisberg. It was a unique opportunity that they seized, even though they were toying with the idea of setting up their own business abroad, far from Switzerland. They actually did so later, but that's another story…
Bodega Palacios Remondo
He was born 'at home', right above his father's bodega – Álvaro Palacios, Spains star vintner. The scent of wine and barrels must have been lying in the air and thus dictated his further life. He studied oenology in Bordeaux and gathered professional experience at the Château Pétrus, and in London, Dublin, and California. Today, he owns vines in the Priorat county, in Bierzo, and at home in the Rioja, and proves his extraordinary talent with premium wines year after year.
