About Winery and Wines
We are currently the fifth generation of winemakers in our family, and the fourth generation to make wine at these facilities. We are a family winery that produces artisanal wines with heart. The evolution of these five generations can be summed up in one word that gives meaning to this story: CESAR. The first stone that started the foundation for this passion for the vineyard and its transformation of grapes into wine was laid by Cesar Delgado in 1908 in Socuéllamos, Spain. The facilities remained there until 1930, when the following generations began making wine in new facilities on Calle Campo de Criptana, just 150 meters from the first ones in the same town, due to the expansion of the company. Every generation has had a Cesar, just like today.
- Family origins: The winery began as a home production for personal consumption, evolving into high-quality bottled wines under the official name Bodegas Delgado Collado S.L. , founded in 2015 by Cesar Delgado Cuevas and Maria Francisca Collado.
- Current leadership: Rubén Delgado Collado, third generation and trained economist, has led the project since 2015, applying his management knowledge to the world of wine.
- Controlled expansion: Annual production of approximately 17,000 bottles, maintaining an artisanal and sustainable approach.
