Recoletas

Tempranillo-focused producer from Spain's high-altitude Castilla y León plateau.

Recoletas produces Tempranillo-based wines from Castilla y León, Spain's largest wine region. The winery's portfolio centers on age-worthy reds that reflect the continental climate and high-altitude terroir of the interior plateau. Vendimia Seleccionada, the flagship expression, demonstrates the depth and structure that Tempranillo achieves in this region—a wine that has drawn attention from Wine Spectator and Wine Enthusiast. The Valdecampaña and Crianza offerings extend the range across different maturation profiles, each built on the same varietal foundation. Castilla y León's cool nights and significant diurnal temperature swings produce wines with bright acidity and concentrated fruit character, qualities evident across Recoletas' lineup. The winery's focus remains on Tempranillo, a grape that demands careful site selection and winemaking discipline—both evident in the critical reception of its core releases.
