Like every morning, the sweet and urgent melody of our rooster announces a new day; special and unique, let’s drink to it.
Built in 2002, the modern Pagos del Rey winery rises majestically from its surroundings. The concrete walls and its dramatic cantilevered roof protect the inside from the baking heat of the sun. The beautifully designed reception as well as the wine making areas have been built as a harmonious and vast pillar free space. The grand window at the reception area allows for a panoramic view over acres of vineyards. This cleverly designed building holds glistening stainless steel tanks and the latest wine making technology.
It is not by chance that the winery is located at the small town of Olmedillo de Roa in Burgos province. This decision was driven by the strong ties of the Solís family to the region.
The cellars hold a sculpture of the Greek goddess, Ariadne, who is holding a bunch of grapes in her hand. Ariadne represents the wine and the arrival of spring with the awakening of vines. Classical music and opera are often heard in the cellars as the wines slumber in their air-conditioned ecosystem.
The Solís family owns two vineyards (70 hectares) and works in partnership with 450 family-owned vineyards that cover around 1,600 hectares.

The days go by, one after another, until, finally, the great day arrives! The calendar stops at 409 days, exactly the number for which our wine stays in its oak barrels, resting in the cellar of our Pagos del Rey winery in Olmedillo de Roa, at the heart of Ribera del Duero.
A wine that exemplifies the best of each grape, the best of each barrel, the best of each cooper … the result of all this is a complex, round wine with nuances of red fruit mixed with spicy and elegant smoky notes. Its persistence in the mouth will reveal a wine full of sensations.
