The Barco del Corneta estate is a vineyard located in Castilla and León in Spain; a region recognized for its agricultural and winemaking wealth. Founded in 2010 by Beatriz Herranz, a vine and wine enthusiast, this estate has become a reference in terms of the verdejo grape variety grown on limestone and clay soil. The estate covers 13 hectares at an altitude of 800 meters. The estate's vines, some of which are over 100 years old, are cultivated in a traditional and environmentally-friendly manner, to produce superior quality wines. The semi-continental climate with sharp temperature variations between day and night promotes slow and complete ripening of the grapes, thus giving them rich and complex aromas. In a constant search for quality improvement, the Barco del Corneta Estate practices organic viticulture and natural winemaking, without using chemical additives. The wines produced are thus authentic, expressive of the terroir, and respectful of the environment. The estate offers a diversity of wines that reflect the verdejo grape variety. The white wines are the most notable, revealing aromas of white fruits, citrus and mineral notes, with a pleasant freshness in the mouth and persistent length. Though less known, the red wines are also of great quality, with a beautiful structure and aromatic complexity. The great speciality of the estate comes from its cellar, an old stable renovated by Beatriz Herranz. This serves not only for the production of wines, but also for the promotion of wine tourism.
