Bodegas Vinicola Real was founded in 1989 by Miguel Ángel Rodríguez in Albelda de Iregua, a town with a remarkable history, whose roots go back beyond the medieval era.
Vinícola Real was built near the chapel of Santa Catalina, the only part that remains of the Monastery of San Martín de Albelda founded in the year 924 AD, the Monastery was destroyed due to the detachment of the Salagona rock in 1683.
Vinícola Real was born with the vocation of being a small production winery specializing in high quality wines and "vinos de pago". The idea is to produce "great wines" from a single terroir, with a differentiated method of production and aging, and with a strong personality (the new style of La Rioja).
The name "200 Monges" is a tribute to the disappeared monastery of San Martín de Albeda located in La Rioja and to all those monks who dedicated themselves to safeguarding culture.
It is a limited edition that is only made when the vintage promises extraordinary potential.
The wine is made of 100% Tempranillo
The Tempranillo variety reigns supreme in this complex and elegant wine. The best grapes are selected from the oldest vineyards so that the terroir is the true protagonist of the wine and expresses the nuances of its landscape.
The new French barrel gives it the complexity and finesse that will be the key to the long process of evolution in the bottle.
Minimum aging of 18 months in new French barrels and 20 months in the bottle rack.
A wine for aging that represents a perfect balance between tradition and modernity. It is advisable to uncork and decant at least 30 minutes before.
