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.

Dense purple hues, with evocative aromas of black cherries, ripe plums, nectarines, boysenberry, wild bramble and exotic oak spice. The juicy and sweet-fruited palate entry, combined with crunchy tannins, lures one into a sense of overtness, yet the wine is sublimely elegant and poised. The complex layers of fruit is in perfect harmony with the oak, all bound together by a lively seam of acidity. The finish is pleasantly dry and savory, with lingering notes of Christmas cake and vanilla pod.
