Sobre la bodega y los vinos
Bodegas Peñafalcon is family owned vineyard with a long tradition, currently managed by Casimiro Marcos and his wife Maria Jose Arranz. The origins of the vineyard go back to the time of the ancestors of the present owners, who made wine in old wine presses dating back to the XVII century. Wine culture and a love for creating these elegant wines has been handed down through generations until to Casimiro de Peñafalcon himself. Every year he made small quantities of wines using traditional methods, to be enjoyed amongst family and friends. In the year 2000, Casimiro fulfilled one of his dreams, when he began producing and commercialising his own wines under the Designation of Origin ‘Ribera del Duero’ in the town of Peñafiel. He called his vineyard ‘Peñafalcon’, after the XI century name of the town, recorded in the ‘Rhyming verse of the poem Mio Cid’; Rodrigo won the battle, Praise be to God, On to Peñafalcon, So is Peñafiel called.
