Since Avelino Vegas founded his winery in 1950, he had already planned to vinify the Verdejo variety, something he did in the 60s, even before there was the Rueda designation of origin.
Today his son Fernando and his wife, Ana Isabel, expand their brands of Rueda, Ribera del Duero and Vinos de Castilla-León throughout the world. Montespina is the most famous brand of their targets.
