HARVESTERS WINERY
Founded in 1913, the Cosecheros winery has since maintained its original headquarters at the gates of the Olite wall, next to the slender tower of the church of San Pedro. A short walk takes us to this century-old winery, which has managed to maintain tradition by recovering forgotten wines and flavors, those that were tasted at the court of Olite. With three hundred hectares of vineyards located in a privileged environment for a microclimate of cold winters and warm summers and for the quality of its clay soil, which gives rise to elegant wines with their own character. Don't hesitate to come to their store or request a guided tour.

RECOMMENDED WINES
We have asked Bodegas Cosecheros 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 to us 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.
WINE YOU LIKE
JUICY VINEYARD
Enjoy with this wine the same sensations of the 1484 dinner at which Leonardo suggested Botticelli - The Birth of Venus. An exceptional pleasure. Its color is cherry red. On the nose it has good intensity where red fruit, toast and licorice notes stand out. In the mouth it is long, round and silky.
GALA WINE
SECRETUM LEONARDI
Secretum Leonardi results from the perfect blend of Merlot and old Grenache. A honey memory of the wild honeycombs of the forests of Nepal. It ferments for 15 days at a controlled temperature to preserve all its varietal character. 6 months in French Oak Barrel.
A SPECIAL WINE
Ovum
“Ovum The Revenant.” Emanation and creation originating in a 120-year-old vineyard; grapes picked by hand and selected grain by grain for later rebirth in the Ovum barrel. Grapes selected grain by grain. At the end of fermentation, the wine is transferred to the Ovum barrel, where it will be reborn and remain for twelve months.
