A Ribera del Duero legend, Bodegas Protos was founded in 1927. The winegrowers of this region of Spain came together in a spirit of solidarity and founded the first wineries in the Ribera, hence the name "Protos" meaning "First" in Greek. Year after year, the Protos bodegas have acquired a reputation without frontiers, exporting their wines all over the world. Now a symbol of the Ribera del Duero region, Bodegas Protos represent the perfect alchemy between respect for tradition and the constant quest for innovation. Fabulous architectural feats with state-of-the-art facilities, Bodegas Protos are located in the heart of the Ribera del Duero region in Peñafiel (Valladolid) and Anguix (Burgos).
With over 1,400 hectares of vineyards, Protos is committed to producing only great wines that represent the full diversity of climats, terroirs and grape varieties of the Ribera Del Duero. Today, Protos produces a complete range of wines that reflect a deep respect for the terroir and tradition. From the vineyard to the cellar, the utmost attention is paid to every stage in the wine-making process, in a constant quest for quality and excellence. Research and development is one of Bodegas Protos' key areas of investment. Protos regularly wins awards for its research and major innovations in viticulture and oenology, including barrel-ageing techniques.
Authentic, generous and superbly crafted, Protos wines rank among the Ribera del Duero's elite.
