Wines

White Grenache.
Own vineyards located in Eastern Rioja, facing north- south, in a slime and clayey soil, in organic farming for over 30 years. Vineyards of small production. We obtain unctuous wines.
The climate is Mediterranean with some Atlantic influence and an average rainfall of 450 l/m2.
Through cold maceration and a refined technique, we obtain the must from the first pressing, going then through cold static decanting into a stainless-steel tank before pouring it into a concrete egg to ferment. This process ends with its ageing on lees for 5 months, constantly stirred in the concrete egg to produce an exquisitely unctuous wine.
The single varietal Grenache from organic farming surprise us with their aromas and flavour, exclusive of a few grape varieties. In the organic farming we have to highlight the formation of microclimate grasses and plants, where the blossom and existence of these stays intimately linked to the flower and berries of the cluster, allowing the wine to dazzle us with the wide nuances below mentioned.
Full-bodied and unctuous on the palate. Well-balanced acidity that is perfectly offset by the sweetness of the tannins found in this variety.

Bodegas Cornelio Dinastía
We are a family Rioja winery with one of the largest offer of organic wines with modern cut in the market – being, in example,  the most Decanter Awarded Rioja winery in 2020- and we are enlarging our distribution network, considering that we elaborate some wines totally different to other riojas with Vega Vella, as well as the most representative riojas with Cornelio.
Vega Vella is one of the largest range of organic wines in the market.
Over 30 years in organic farming, which grants a high degree of expertise, purity of the terroir and variety and allow us to focus on high quality, enabled by low productions and the privileged
location of our terroirs, in windy sun facing slopes, poor clay soils and Mediterranean climate with scarce annual rainfall.
Modern procedures, protecting and enhancing the fruits, scarce varieties in Rioja and innovative blending make our wines special, attractive and modern.
Like Cornelio, limited editions, High International Ratings, certify our excellence. We have been the most Decanter Awarded winery in Rioja in 2020 and for third year in a row great winner at Ecovino.
