Fincas de Azabache: Celebrating 70 Years of Viñedos de Aldeanueva
On November 20th, Fincas de Azabache is celebrating an unparalleled milestone in the winemaking sector: the 70th Anniversary of the founding of our cooperative, Viñedos de Aldeanueva!
Seven decades of history, sustainable growth, and a profound commitment to the land of Eastern La Rioja.
Viñedos de Aldeanueva: The Triumph of Collaboration
Our trajectory is the triumph of collaboration. As our manager, Abel Torres, stated, summarizing the spirit that has guided us since 1955:
"In a cooperative, no one wins alone. Every step forward is built on the work of everyone and is also enjoyed collectively."
This philosophy has allowed us to evolve and become the largest production winery in the D.O.Ca Rioja by vineyard volume, making us a benchmark for quality in the region.
A Legacy Forged with Riojan Commitment
Today, we remember the courage of our founders. In the 1950s, the Viñedos de Aldeanueva cooperative was launched with a large loan personally guaranteed by the farmers, some of whom signed those commitments with only their fingerprint.
That faith and that mark of commitment are the legacy that has allowed us to overcome challenges, consolidate our winery, and maintain 100% Riojan capital to this day.
Looking to the Future of Fincas de Azabache
As we celebrate this anniversary, we look to the future of Fincas de Azabache with ambition and with the spirit of innovation that defines us.
The legacy is in motion. We thank our partners, workers, and customers for being part of this great history.
We invite you to celebrate our anniversary by discovering the wines born from this great collective history.
