Segovia

Segovia is the smallest province in the autonomy of Castile and León, with an area of 6,920km². It borders Valladolid and Burgos to the north, Soria and Guadalajara to the east, Madrid to the south and Ávila to the west. It is divided into four judicial regions: Cuéllar, Santa María la Real de Nieva, Segovia and Sepúlveda.

HISTORY OF WINE

Castile and León is a land of wine, and although the province of Segovia does not boast a large extension of vineyards, it does have a large variety of wineries. In the DO Valtiendas and DO Ribeira del Duero, viticulture goes back to the Cistercian monks of St. Bernard who arrived in the 12th century. They imported vines from France and Catalonia, but they knew how to adapt them to the ground and give fame to their wines.

If we talk about the wineries in the northwest of Segovia, it would still have to be traced back more. The production of white wines in the Segovian Countryside area goes back to time immemorial, and so demonstrate the wineries in the subsoil, not to mention later ones like the Parral Monastery. Here, wines were made for both their own consumption and for selling to the city of Segovia and other regions.

In Segovia, three large areas of wineries can be distinguished: Designation of Origin Rueda, in the northwest of the Segovian countryside and the most traditional; Designation of Origin Valtiendas, which is the newest; and the Designation of Origin Ribera de Duero, which touches the extreme north.
