Residencia Real Castillo de Curiel
At "Castillo de Peñafiel" winery we elaborate the our red wine "Viejo Coso", gold medalist at Bordeaux Challenge International du Vin. Enjoy a wine tasting and a visit to the vintage winery.
The winery for vintage wines is located in Curiel de Duero (Valladolid), between Peñafiel and Pesquera de Duero, in a rebuilt twelfth-century church with surrounding walls measuring two meters in width and unmatchable building conditions.
This is the site of our storehouse of American and French oak barrels, kept at a constant temperature and humidity to provide our wine with the bouquet and sense-arousing characteristics that distinguish it from the most famous wines in the Ribera de Duero region.
