Pesus
Viña Sastre • Ribera del Duero
"The liquid perfection of Ribera. Pesus is one of the world's most exclusive labels, born from century-old vineyards in the heart of La Horra."
The Icon of Hermanos Sastre
Crafted by the Sastre family in the heart of the D.O. Ribera del Duero, Pesus represents the pinnacle of boutique winemaking in Spain. This wine is not only an expression of the terroir but a tribute to patience: it comes from selected plots with minimal yields where quality prevails over any commercial metric.
Viticulture at Viña Sastre is governed by natural principles, a philosophy that has been praised by reference publications such as The Wine Advocate. By eschewing chemical fertilizers, the century-old vines manage to express the minerality and untamed character of the Burgos soil.
