In the easternmost part of the Ribera del Duero (Soria), at high altitude, we find old majuelo vineyards—small traditional plots—where resilient, timeworn vines still endure.

San Esteban de Gormaz is defined by a predominantly continental climate, with long, cold winters and hot, dry summers. However, a touch of Atlantic influence brings slight humidity and moderates the extreme temperatures typical of other areas in Castilla.

Located at an average altitude of 900 meters above sea level, the region experiences significant temperature swings between day and night. These variations promote slow, gradual ripening of the grapes, resulting in a higher concentration of aromas and flavors, while preserving balanced acidity.
