El Esteco Old Vines is an homage to the life and trajectory of some of our estates with more than 50 years of existence, is the adventure to discover the respect for the history of the most ancient vineyards in the region, carefully preserved in every bottle.
Vineyards that live in harmony with the terroir and require minimal human intervention to give us intriguing and very rare vines. Wines that achieve a perfect balance over the years, silent witnesses of a wise and natural development.
