The winery Bodegas César Velasco obtains the ECO-PROWINE stamp.

Our history

Bodegas César Velasco, which is located in Villarrobledo (Albacete), belongs to the third family generation. As a result, over a century, it has produced a unique wine, aged and pampered in centuries-old clay pots. These jars were made in this town by 19 different potters.

What distinguishes us, as well as identifies us and makes us more sustainable, is the use of natural materials; both in the production process and in our wines’ rest. The use of these porous clay jars contribute to the clarification, as well as the refining of the wines in a natural way.

Our sustainable grape seed

Everyone who participates in this way of life is very aware of the responsible use of energy and water; we work in the fields:

Specifically in our vineyards; we apply responsible work and treatments; we have eliminated the use of herbicides, and the use of insecticides is insignificant.
In the winery, we have significantly reduced the weight of glass in the bottles, and we use recycled cardboard and corks from the cork trees.
In the use of oenological products, we are very aware of two premises: on one hand, moderation in their use, and on the other hand, maintaining our philosophy of making young wines in the most natural possible way. Besides, the addition of allergens is much lower than the legal limits established, so in practice, we would be talking about eco wines.
