The Balbas winery 

In 1777 the legacy of our family begins, linked to the terroir and the vine for almost 250 years. Abundio Balbás, the great-great-grandfather, made wine for his own consumption with grapes from his land, which he transported in “boots” made from animal skin.
This practice became a profession, that of “boteros”, which the family has been able to develop and evolve until today becoming one of the leading wineries of the DO Ribera del Duero, of which we were founders in 1982.
