About Winery and Wines
Legado de Orniz combines four generations of winemaking tradition in San Román de Hornija with modern expertise to produce authentic and elegant Toro wines. The estate is dedicated to preserving centuries-old Tinta de Toro vineyards in harmony with the valley's unique microclimate and diverse soils. These vineyards are dry-farmed and goblet-trained, with some pre-phylloxera vines, reflecting the perseverance of the region's winemaking heritage.
The soils, a key asset of the winery, range from stony and high-altitude plots to sandy-loam slopes, each contributing complexity, concentration, and freshness to the wines. The terroir is further enhanced by the extreme climate, with long winters and hot, dry summers, resulting in grapes of exceptional quality and character.
Founded by Enriqueta Celemín Amaro, a fourth-generation winemaker, and Diego Alfredo Ribbert, an agricultural engineer and winemaker from Mendoza, the winery is committed to creating wines that showcase the incredible potential of this unique region.
Legado de Orniz is a family winery nestled in the valley of San Román de Hornija, where its legacy is embodied in exceptional wines. The winery is committed to sustainability, producing wines with passion and elegance that capture the power of modern Tinta de Toro.
