Family
Devoted to wine generation after generationThe winery project is very dear to the Belasco family. It is a family that has been transmitting its own values to each generation: restlessness, movement, the search for excellence, sensitivity to details and the need for constant research.
BELASCO FAMILY HISTORY
This is our story
Winemaking has many special moments that mostly revolve around the vineyard. They begin with the care and attention given to the vineyard throughout the year, continue with the picking of each grape variety at its optimum moment, the work carried out when they come into the winery where the best techniques are applied, and conclude when this whole process results in a wine with a marked personality that transmits the identity of a land. This work has been carried out by 8 generations in the Belasco Family.
Our project in the world of wine is today a reality for our company. Continuous growth since the 1980s is due to our excitement about each vintage, which we seek to make better every year. We achieve the hardest part, to establish ourselves in this difficult world and now we continue to grow with a goal: to be the benchmark for innovation in the world of wine. Firm commitment, striving at every step, sweating every success, we are going in a clear direction.
“Wine, is our driving force, our ideal.
Our vision of the future.
Our passion.
It is a dream come true”.
Juan Ignacio Belasco
