About Martinez Corta Winery
In 1889, when they left behind them the harsh conditions of mountain village life, the family brought down to the valley an ancestral knowledge acquired from years spent in the highland
prairies tending their flocks of sheep. They settled among the vineclad landscape of the river bank areas and slopes, where they learned the art of vine-growing, maintaining the character they had forged over many years in the mountains. Since Catalina Martínez arrived there, the “Corta” family has maintained a loyalty to this unique land. Today, the essence of Martínez Corta is a fusion of the highlands and the valley, the wild hills and the gentle lowlands, the world of forests and that of vines. The two souls of Rioja are encapsulated in the Corta family’s fascinating story and in their wines, which ooze with life and truth. They are today made in a cutting-edge winery, designed with an original octagonal floor surrounded by a vineclad
landscape and representing the culmination of generations of tireless effort. This fusion of modernity with time-honoured tradition embodies the spirit of the Martinez Corta brand.
