The winery

Bodegas Nexus

Winery in Pesquera de Duero, within the Ribera del Duero DO, active since 1999. It works its own Tempranillo vineyards on loamy-clay and limestone soils of poor texture. The house separates its wines by vine age: young fruit for the fresher wines and low-yielding old vines for the most concentrated. Ageing always takes place in French Allier barrels, with the idea of not masking the fruit.
