Pago de los Capellanes is located near the village of Pedrosa de Duero, nestled deep in the heart of the Ribera del Duero region of Spain. The name of Pago de los Capellanes means land of the chaplains, which comes from the area where the estate is located. In the past, the estate had a mere thousand vines, grown in the traditional gobelet style. The Rodero–Villa family, complemented by a group of exceptional wine professionals, have followed their personal approach to making wine. This has brought into being today’s Pago de los Capellanes estate, fulfilling a dream that began in 1980.
Presently, more than 250 acres of vineyards, grown in the modern style of trained vines, surround the winery. We exclusively work with Tempranillo grape as we think that it shows perfectly the essence of Ribera del Duero. All the wines marketed under the Pago de los Capellanes brand are made with the same care; red wines show their individual character, the result of tranquil aging, care and patience.
