Thank you so much to the hundred of you who joined us last Saturday at the wine tasting in aid of La Palma in our village Baños de Río Tobía. We would also like to thank the work of the organisation and the support of all the people involved, as without their efforts this "union" of wines from the Canary Islands and La Rioja would not have been possible.

On the 27th of November, in the municipal frontón court of our village, we will participate in a charity tasting of wines from the Canary Islands and La Rioja to raise funds and help to mitigate the damage caused by the volcanic erruption. We will be together with two other wineries from La Rioja and five wineries from the Canary Islands, and the wines will be tasted under the direction of sommeliers Ana María Martín and Ángel Villar, as well as oenologists and winemakers Juan Carlos Sancha and Clemente García. In addition, there will be live connections with the Canarian wineries.

Although we have already harvested the plots of our white grapes, we continue to exhaustively control the ripening of the red grapes in order to harvest at the right moment when the grapes are at the certain point, so as to to produce our wines with the quality we demand.

Although the history of our designation of origin goes back thousands of years, it is now 30 years since one of the key milestones in its development: on 3 April 1991, we were officially recognised as a Qualified Designation of Origin, which placed us in a higher category.
