DO NAVARRA
Wineries
Founded in 1864, our elaborations are made in the oldest winery in the Appellation Navarra. Located to the north of the denomination and close to the Route of Santiago, the building was used to be a pilgrim hostel. In the shadow of the mountain and the blue sky plowed through the clouds typical of this Navarrese enclave, history, tradition and new techniques come together in our winery.
From the modern vinification room equipped with the best technology to the historic barrels room dedicated to its ageing, our winery is designed to make superior quality wines. Controlling each process from the entry of grapes into the winery, fermentation, ageing and final rest in the bottle, our team of highly experienced professionals is true to the search for excellence. A sign of identity is the freshness and personality of our wines.
All this work is developed with the experience and extensive trajectory of more than 130 years of work that supports us.
AzulTono
Serenity, harmony, loyalty and truth are only a small part of all the symbolism that the color Blue possesses. Much more than a simple color, at Azul Tono we wanted to reflect each of those characteristics. Like a glass of wine, it also represents sympathy and friendship. Let us never forget that the sky is blue, and that is why blue is the color of the divine, the color of the eternal.

Viñedos
DO Navarra has an exceptional climate and soils for the production of high-quality wines. Our vineyards are distributed in different strategic points throughout the appellation, which allows us to explore the qualities of each terroir and its singularities, in this way we are able to make a selection in each estate to make each type of wine. In turn, the viticulture we practice is sustainable, always respecting the environment.
Terroir
The confluence of the Atlantic and Mediterranean climates continental, the proximity of the Cantabrian Sea, the influence of the Pyrenees and the closeness of the valley of Ebro river make an exceptional location for the growth of our vines. One of the main characteristics that define our vineyards in Navarra is the great diversity of soils and climates finding all kinds of enclaves such as hillsides, riverbanks, plateaus and plains.
The main components of soils of our vineyards of Navarre are clays, limestones, silts and round stones.
All the above, together with our glass or trellised vines, build an ideal ecosystem for the development of our vineyards.
