Berberana is one of the oldest and finest names in Rioja. Founded in 1877 the Bodega in Cenicero in the Rioja Alta is now a modern winery with ageing facilities housing over 50,000 barrels and producing wine of the highest standard.
Known for its consistent quality and range of wines both traditional and modern, Berberana is at the forefront of modern winemaking technology whilst at the same time mindful of the tradition and history that has made Rioja one of the classic wine regions of the world.
A traditional Rioja Brand where much emphasis is placed on careful barrel ageing, using American oak for Crianza quality through to Gran Reserva. This is followed by further bottle maturation that allows the wines to reach a good level of maturity when first released.
