Historia

Áster was created with wisdom, enthusiasm and great patience.

We sought the best possible site following the advice of the Denomination’s best growers and different academic experts. We studied and analysed the soil, grapes and weather of different subzones. Anguix (Burgos) was finally selected as the ideal location and in 1991 we planted the vineyard on land we had purchased the previous year. The grapes from the first six harvests were sold. The first crop used to make wine, in 1999, did not meet our expectations. There was too much production that year and the resulting wine, which others may have accepted, was not approved by our oenologists and it was sold in bulk. In 2000, having verified the quality of the vineyard and the grapes, we built a winery representing a perfect combination of cutting-edge wine-making technology with a timeless and elegant design. That year saw the creation of our first Áster wine.
