The head office is located in the municipality of Nalda, south of the provincial capital Logroño. The owner is D. Javier Palacios. The company owns a total of 275 hectares of vineyards. The vineyards are cultivated according to certified organic viticulture rules, with environmental protection and sustainability playing an important role. The wines are not (yet) certified as organic.
The main winery is located in Pesquera del Duero in the DO area of Ribera del Duero. TRUS is an acronym for Tierra, Roble, Uva, Sol (Earth, Oak, Grape, Sun). It was founded in 1999. The vineyards are mostly located at 700 to 800 metres above sea level and cover 145 hectares of vines, some of which are very old. In addition, grapes are purchased from 25 winegrowers who cultivate 50 hectares.
The wein.plus encyclopaedia is a comprehensive, well-researched reference work. Available anytime and anywhere, it has become an indispensable part of teaching, used by students and myself alike. Highly recommended!
