Good to Know: During the time when Rioja styles were heavily locked into the tradition of blending both grape varietals and vineyards, Marcos and Miguel Eguren, strove to establish the identity and uniqueness of single vineyards and microclimates in the region. The creation of Senorio de San Vicente is heavily rooted with one amazingly unique vineyard, Finca La Canoca. Located in a tiny valley at the foothills of the Sierra Cantabria mountain range, the grapes on this vineyard are 100% Tempranillo Peludo planted on extremely high-density trellises. This specific clone of Tempranillo, combined with the vineyard’s location produced a different and unique expression of both elegance and concentration in their wines. The vineyard's location on the northern fringes of Rioja Alavesa reaches both the optimal conditions and the limit at which the Tempranillo Peludo can reach its true potential; any closer to the Sierra Cantabria mountain range, and the grapes would have trouble ripening.
Officially established in 1991, Senorio de San Vicente was established by the Eguren brothers of Sierra Cantabria, Marcos and Miguel, with the goal of creating a new style and philosophy of Rioja wines. They wanted to shift the philosophy of that time which was focused on blending vineyards and varietals to a single vineyard, single varietal style. They were the first to challenge this system which eventually led to other Rioja producers following in their footsteps.
