Where Great Wines Begin
Nestled in the rolling hills of Requena, Bodegas Hispano+Suizas cultivates 110 hectares of estate-owned vineyards in one of Spain’s most distinctive wine-growing regions. The combination of limestone-rich soils, a continental climate with Mediterranean influences, and vineyards that have been cultivated for over two millennia provides the perfect foundation for exceptional wines. The estate is home to a diverse selection of grape varieties, including Bobal, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Syrah and Petit Verdot. Precision viticulture, low yields and meticulous vineyard management ensure that every vine contributes to wines of remarkable character, balance and consistency.
The Art of Harvest
Harvest at Hispano+Suizas is guided by precision, patience and respect for the fruit. Grapes are hand-picked in small 15 kg crates during the cool morning hours to preserve freshness and aromatic purity. Only perfectly ripened, healthy bunches are selected directly in the vineyard. Once at the winery, the grapes undergo an innovative cooling process, spending up to three days at -10°C before vinification. This unique technique enhances aroma extraction while naturally preventing premature fermentation. With a harvest season stretching from early August through late October, each variety is picked at its optimal moment, ensuring exceptional quality across the winery’s diverse portfolio of sparkling, white, rosé and red wines.
A Place Shaped by Passion
Founded on the vision of creating world-class wines without compromise, Bodegas Hispano+Suizas has become one of the most respected wineries in the Valencia region. Located in Requena, the estate combines innovation with deep respect for tradition, continuously exploring the potential of both indigenous and international grape varieties. Every wine is produced exclusively from estate-grown fruit, allowing complete control from vineyard to bottle. Beyond its vineyards and winery, the estate also offers a boutique hotel, elegant tasting facilities and breathtaking vineyard landscapes. Whether visiting for wine, gastronomy or relaxation, guests experience the passion, craftsmanship and hospitality that define Hispano+Suizas.
Where Craft Meets Innovation
The winery blends modern technology with artisanal craftsmanship to achieve the highest quality at every stage of production. White wines are gently macerated at low temperatures before fermenting in carefully selected oak barrels, while red wines undergo cold maceration and fermentation in barrel to maximise complexity and elegance. Pressing is deliberately gentle, using low-pressure pneumatic presses to preserve purity and finesse. Ageing takes place in premium French and American oak, with each grape variety matured separately before the final blend is assembled shortly before bottling. Every detail, from hand bottling to meticulous quality control, reflects the winery’s unwavering commitment to excellence.
Wines with Character
Hispano+Suizas has built an international reputation for producing elegant, expressive wines that combine innovation with a strong sense of place. The winery is renowned for its award-winning Tantum Ergo sparkling wines, crafted according to the traditional method and recognised among Spain’s finest. Signature wines such as Bassus Pinot Noir, Quod Superius, Bobos Bobal and Impromptu Sauvignon Blanc showcase both indigenous and international varieties at their highest potential. Limited-production wines, including the Mediterranean Albariño Finca Casa Julia, demonstrate the winery’s pioneering spirit. Across the portfolio, every bottle reflects careful vineyard management, low yields and an uncompromising pursuit of quality.
More Than a Winery
A visit to Bodegas Hispano+Suizas offers far more than a winery tour. Guests are invited to explore the vineyards, discover the winemaking process and enjoy guided tastings of the estate’s acclaimed wines and sparkling wines. The beautifully restored boutique hotel, located within the historic Finca Casa La Borracha, provides an intimate retreat surrounded by vineyards. Gastronomic experiences combine regional cuisine with carefully selected wine pairings, while private spaces are available for corporate events and celebrations. Sustainability is woven into every aspect of the estate, encouraging visitors to appreciate and help preserve the natural landscape. Every experience reflects the winery’s dedication to authenticity, hospitality and exceptional wine.
