Purity in Nature’s Extremes

Overview: Bodegas Portia is located in the heart of Spain’s Ribera del Duero and offers very small production wines - intense, energetic & balanced. The Portia winery is a stunning display of modern design, winemaking function and artistic detail.

Region: Ribera del Duero wine region is located in Spain’s northern plateau. Here, the continental climate experiences hot temperatures during the dry summer and freezing, bitter winters. This extreme variation allows the grapes to develop intense aromatics. The Martinez family purchased nearly 400 acres in the 1990s, focused on the high-quality possibilities in the Roa, Gumiel de Izán, Villanueva, and Gumiel de Mercado regions, known collectively as ‘the golden triangle’ of Ribera del Duero. These very special high-elevation vineyard plots vary from 2,300-2,790 feet ASL. Eastern and southern facing vineyards are on clay soils and are planted chiefly Tempranillo, with an average density of 1,200 vines per acre.
