The Cantera de Santa Ana estate is located in a privileged place known for centuries as the "Mount of the vines." They strive for quality, passionate, and responsible viticulture. Their production is limited as they exclusively process the grapes from the estate: Chardonnay, Syrah, Garnacha tinta, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Tempranillo. Green pruning, thinning, selective harvesting, macerations, barrel malolactic fermentation, oak and bottle aging, the passage of time... are some of the tools they use to produce their wines.

Navarra: The proximity of the Cantabrian Sea, the barrier of the Pyrenees, and the mild climate of the Ebro Valley make Navarra a unique place on the peninsula for grape cultivation. Here, the Atlantic, continental, and Mediterranean climates come together.
This designation is divided into 5 zones: Baja Montaña, Tierra Estella, Ribera Alta, Valdizarbe, and Ribera Baja, where the Cantera Estate is located. In the heart of the Ebro Valley and with the Moncayo mountain range in the background, the unique nuances of this plot represent the terroir of the Estate Wines, manually harvested and crafted with great care.
A must-visit are the Bardenas Reales of Navarra. You will fall in love with them for sure. They were the setting in the sixth season of Game of Thrones. This desert Biosphere Reserve of 420 square kilometers is a gem full of nature's whims.
Did you know? Technically, rosé wine is made like white wine and not red. Nomeolvides is made with Garnacha tinta grapes using the bleeding technique. After the harvest, the grapes are taken to tanks to macerate with the grape skins. They are called "tear" rosés because it is the time the grape skin "cries" to give them color and aroma. This typical method of Navarra is only done with red grapes. A Navarra rosé, and with this method, ensures quality.
The Cantera de Santa Ana estate is "Soil, Moncayo, and Cierzo." The Moncayo, majestic as the highest peak of the Iberian system, protects them by trapping the clouds and cold Atlantic winds. Its imposing size and its halo of sacred mountain create a unique, almost magical landscape. Alluvial soil and limestone. Fast-draining and cool at the bottom. Exceptional for viticulture. The Cierzo. That cold, dry northwest wind. When it blows, it makes their grapes healthy and their nights fresh.
