History Hermanos Pérez Pascuas
Mauro Pérez (the father) planted the 35 hectares of vines in the 40’s and 50’s. It was a very big estate then for a small village like Pedrosa de Duero. All the production went to the local cooperative. Then in 1980, his three sons Benjamín, Adolfo and Manuel decided to make the wine at the estate. So the first Viña Pedrosa was born. In those times, there were not even 10 bodegas in the region! The DO Ribera del Duero itself was created in 1982, and the Pérez Pascuas brothers were amongst its founders. 1989 was a new landmark for them: then the 3rd generation came on board, with Benjamín’s son José Manuel – who had been trained as an oenologist. From then on, the wines reached new heights. José Manuel is at ease with the quality concept defined by his father and uncles, and on certain points, he even goes further. Now the story has gone full circle with the arrival of the other members of the third generation, Manuel and Adolfo. The original bodega at the centre of the village having become too small, the winery moved to the periphery. It now includes tasting rooms and a wine cellar where the great wines can age in perfect conditions. Viña Pedrosa stands out by its elegance and finesse, two qualities that are becoming quite rare in the Ribera del Duero wines.
