history
Wine has been culturally linked to Castile since ancient times. In the XVI century, the elaboration of Ribera del Duero wine was the main economic activity in the area.
The current way of making wine in our Ribera del Duero winery comes from the medieval tradition when the vineyards spread out beyond the monasteries.
In the XVIII century, wineries were built to press the grape and obtain the must that was later fermented to make wine. This wine was later preserved in the underground cellars.
The area where all these underground cellars were located is called Torremorón, hence the name of the winery.
In our vineyards, with vines between 30 and 100 years old, we cultivate and harvest according to the tradition of our grandparents, with a manual harvest that fully respects the quality of the grapes.
Torremorón 1957
In 1957 a great corporate movement invaded the hearts of 57 founding winemakers of Torremorón Ribera del Duero. They cultivated their small vineyards, which still exist, silent witnesses of evolution.
Over the years, winemakers from neighbouring villages were incorporated. The majority of the vineyard is located on the north bank of the Duero River, 800m above sea level and protected by the Cuesta Manvirgo.
In 1990 Torremorón winery made a major improvement, expanding its facilities and incorporating cutting-edge technology in the production of wine, incorporating all the resources that guarantee a thorough control of the product to achieve the highest quality, and ensure the future of forthcoming generations.
Currently, Tinto Fino (Tempranillo or Tinta del Pais) and Albillovarieties, which give the best of themselves, are cultivated in this land. The average age of the vineyard is between 20 and 40 years old, although there are still centennial plots, from which the grapes are obtained for the production of our most representative wines.
Our fields are located in a natural environment, pampered by nature and cared for by our professionals.
