Bodegas Orben
A vanguard, modern project intrinsically linked to the world of gastronomy. From the alliance between creativity and knowledge arises a path that guides the winery beyond all convention and rule. Orben creates and reinvents a wine concept allied with the old vineyards of Rioja Alavesa. Located around Laguardia, 74 micro-plots mark their journey in a process that begins with manual harvesting and the selection, bunch by bunch, of small grapes. Desired origin for a process that incorporates the paradoxical wisdom of wine with new technical knowledge, all in pursuit of an approach to the essence of such a privileged land. Taking care of these vineyards and every detail of the winemaking results in wines that maintain the typicality of the region, but with a unique and well-defined personality.
Artevino Group
Artevino takes its first steps in the wine world thanks to Gonzalo Antón who, together with a group of friends and businessmen from Álava, builds Bodegas Izadi in the heart of Rioja Alavesa in 1987.
Villabuena de Álava, where part of the family was already linked to the viticulture world, was the chosen town where an innovative winery focused on the production of quality wines was built.
In 2000, the incorporation of his son, Lalo Antón, drives foreign marketing, as well as the expansion of the company, which under the name of Artevino, undertakes the projects of Finca Villacreces (D.O. Ribera del Duero), Bodegas Vetus (D.O. Toro and D.O. Rueda) and Orben (D.O.Ca. Rioja).
The four wineries maintain a unique and well differentiated personality, although they share the same mission: the production of quality wines from national varieties in the most emblematic areas of their respective denominations of origin, the most prestigious in Spain.
