OUR STORY
A FAMILY CONNECTED TO WINE FOR GENERATIONS
Discover Our Story
The Valentín Lara family has spent generations dedicated to the world of wine as viticulturists, winemakers and devotees of wine culture. Today, the project is led by Miguel Ángel Valentín Díaz and Miguel Ángel Valentín Lara, father and son, both biologists and viticulturists by vocation.
Miguel Ángel Valentín Díaz spent more than ten years building his career as technical director in Rioja, before going on to launch several projects in Castilla-La Mancha, championing an innovative approach to viticulture grounded in the study of ‘terroir’ and the making of high-quality wines.
Miguel Ángel Valentín Lara completed his training making wine in regions such as Rioja, Piedmont and Alto Adige before returning to his homeland to create wines of character, inspired by an organic philosophy and deep respect for the vineyard.
A TERRITORY WITH IDENTITY
Tomelloso, the origin of our wines.
Our vineyards are located in Tomelloso, a land shaped by an extreme climate, diverse soils and a long winemaking tradition that defines the character of our wines.
A project born to preserve a legacy
Lara was born in 2024.
In response to a shared concern: to restore the value of the vineyards that for generations have defined the landscape of Tomelloso, and to give back prominence to a form of viticulture centred on quality and origin.
In a region where large-scale production had dominated for decades, we decided to follow a different path.
We are committed to preserving historic vineyards, working every plot with the utmost care and crafting wines that reflect the character of the land they come from.
This is how our Resistance Viticulture was born: a way of understanding wine that protects the legacy we have received while looking to the future without giving up its roots.
