Señorio de Arana Winery was founded in the late 70s by De Santiago family, embracing a long family tradition in the world of viticulture. The winery was founded with the intention of producing high quality wines. They are always striving to achieve excellence in their production. Framed in an excellent environment for the production of wine, Señorio de Arana winery is located in the Rioja region surrounded by their vineyards, varieties such as Garnacha, Tempranillo, Graciano, Mazuelo... The care of their vineyards is at its highest level since the founding of the winery to offer the highest quality wines that this land can offer.
The winery has modern facilities dedicated to wine production that facilitate the process, but at Bodegas Señorío de Arana they believe that the human factor is crucial in winemaking, from the grape to the winemaker. The production of their wines are made using a strict traceability system, in which the grapes from each parcel are tracked and controlled throughout the entire production process. The grapes are pre-selected before they are processed in stainless steel tanks with controlled fermentation.
Once the alcoholic and malolactic fermentation is complete, our wine is aged in oak barrels for a period of between 15 and 30 months, depending on the wine. The winery has a total storage capacity of 2 million liters with a total of 1500 barrels of American and French oak and a bottle rack of up to 200,000 bottles. Fermentation takes place in vats, macerating for 15 days at 28ºC. Once this is complete, the wines are naturally clarified through several rackings. They are then transferred to American and French oak barrels, where they begin their aging process for 18 months, after which they go into the bottle cellar for a minimum of 2 years where the wines finish balancing.
