Bodegas Pinuaga - Toledo

Bodegas Pinuaga, located on a plateau high (800m) above the Spanish region of Toledo, is a family-owned, organic winery with a rich history that dates back to 1960. The founder of the winery, Esther Pinuaga’s grandfather, built a facility in the center of the city as was traditional at the time. The first winery was lost upon his death, but the vineyards remained, and the Pinuaga estate, as we know it today, was built in the center of the vineyards.

Esther and the Pinuaga family are leaders in the organic farming movement in Spain. Esther is the co-founder and long-time President of the Spanish Association of Organic Winemakers and more recently is part of the movement founded to work for more respectful pruning.
