Bodegas Félix Callejo

The Callejo family winery was founded in 1989 and is now run by the four second generation Callejo siblings. José Félix Callejo trained at Pétrus in Pomerol as well as the Miguel Torres winery of Curicó, Chile. Since 2000 he has been head winemaker of Bodegas Félix Callejo. In 2009 his sister Noelia Callejo joined the team after having trained at Argentina's Viña Cobos winery and at Araujo Estate Wines in Napa Valley. 

The winery works with 55 hectares of its own vineyards planted to Tempranillo, Albillo Mayor, Merlot and Garnacha. The vines grow on the northern slopes of the river, in Sotillo de la Ribera at an altitude of 900m. The winery uses ecological management techniques in the vineyard to best express the character of their terroir.
