Bodegas Menade is located near the banks of the river Duero in Rueda. It was founded in 2005 by the Sanz siblings, sixth generation of winegrowers and producers who focuses on making environmentally-friendly wines from Verdejo.
Vineyards are located over 700 meter above sea level, aiming to protect environment and keep biodiversity of the land. Viticulture without coppers nor sulfur is very difficult but the Sanz brothers always keep attention to make it comes true. Ozone is also used during the growing cycle as a natural disinfectant against fungus and bacteria. They even pioneered so-called “mobile trees” which are transported all around the vines to attract insects and birds that live in the vineyards and help to pollinate.
