More about Grandes Pagos de España:
Founded in 2000, Grandes Pagos de España is a non-profit association of 34 prestigious wineries across Spain. Membership in Grandes Pagos is based on rigorous selection criteria for viticulture and winemaking excellence on the level of a pago, a delineated vineyard that is the ultimate terroir designation in Spain. Grandes Pagos de España aims to defend the unique, terroir-driven personality of single-estate wines, to uphold and promote the ethos of Spanish winemaking, and to produce wines of excellence in harmony with the soil, nature and climate of each vineyard. The organization leads The Terroir Workshop by Grandes Pagos de España (available in the U.S., United Kingdom, Mexico, Japan and Spain) to explore Spanish terroir in the context of history, science, geography, language and people.
