The Senorio De Sarria Estate
Although the winery was founded in 1953, history shows that this land has been used for cultivating vines for many centuries. There is a close link between the history of Navarra and the history of the Señorío, as one of the lords of Sarría, Juan de Azpilicueta, covered the expenses of the studies of his brother, St. Francis Xavier, patron saint of Navarra, with the income obtained from the exploitation of these lands.
Located in Puente La Reina, at the heart of the Pilgrims´ Way to Santiago, Señorío de Sarría finds itself in an area that offers excellent climate and soil conditions, enabling a range of top quality wines to be elaborated.
The Senorio De Sarria Vineyards
110 hectares of numerous varieties of vines are spread out on the slopes and sun-facing sides of the Sierra del Perdón, Olite and Corella.
Each plant, each vineyard, each plot receives exquisite care and special monitoring to make great wines from the outset. Tempranillo, Graciano, Mazuelo, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot for the production of red wines. Garnacha for rosés. And Chardonnay for whites. Each grape variety has been carefully selected and cultivated in the most appropriate place, taking into account the light, humidity and temperature conditions required in each case.

Emilio Rojo Ribeiro Blanc is made from 80% Trajadura, 20% others.
Emilio Rojo is produced on the hillside facing the morning sun of the Avia Valley. The vineyard has been tirelessly worked for over 30 years and through these efforts it shaped an iconic landscape that is defined by its perfect terraces and artisanal viticulture.
Emilio Rojo has been designed to transcend time. A wine made in communion with Nature and attached to the roots of the vines that faithfully express the character of the place. Emilio Rojo is the perfect fusion of the man and the vineyard.
Emilio Rojo is a blend of different local varieties (treixadura, lado, godello, caíño blanco, albariño and torrontés) that resulted in a delicate, but tense and lively wine. A complex nose that opens with time, marked by round, citrus fruit notes and floral nuances. An energetic and elegant feel with great depth that leads to a long, full finish. An honest representation of this unique plot.
Review:
"Shimmering yellow. A wild, highly complex bouquet evokes ripe citrus and orchard fruits, succulent herbs, fennel and chamomile, and a smoky mineral element adds urgency and lift. Stains the palate with concentrated Meyer lemon, pear and peach nectar, honey and floral flavors that are supported by an undercurrent of juicy acidity. Deftly combines depth and energy and finishes extremely long and minerally, with resonating orchard fruit and floral notes. - Josh RAYNOLDS"
