VEGA DEL CASTILLO WINERY
A step away from the historic center of Olite is the Vega del Castillo winery, founded in 1990 and which reflects the tradition and good work of the union of three cooperatives: Bodega Cooperativa Olitense (Olite), the Cooperativa Virgen de Ujué (Ujué) and the Nuestra Señora de Ujué Wine Cooperative (Pitillas). Its vineyards extend across lands with different characteristics, ranging from the low mountains to the middle and upper banks, and produce a wide variety of grapes: Grenache, Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon, Viura and Muscat. They are collected and elaborated with care to obtain the wide variety of wines that you can find in the Bodega Vega del Castillo store.

RECOMMENDED WINES
We have asked Vega del Castillo to recommend three wines, one for going around the house, for when we have engagement guests or we feel like opening a bottle simply because we feel like it, another for occasions, when a guest comes that we want to entertain. , and the third, a different wine, one that has been made with special care and that we will not find in other wineries.
