Hacienda El Ternero

Cantina e Vini

The origin of the estate dates back to 1077 AD, when it belonged to the Santa María de Herrera Monastery. The group of buildings, sheltered by the Obarenes Mountains, were formerly used as a monastery, military headquarters, school, hospital for pilgrims on the ‘Camino de Santiago’ and a chapel, which remains open to shelter our patron saint, the Virgen de la Pera . At the heart of the estate is our winery: stone buildings from the 17th, 18th and 19th Centuries where we make our wines in an almost handcrafted way, which allows us to give them the attention they deserve. Within the walls of the former monastery our wines rest peacefully in French oak barrels, where over time they become refined.
