La Muela is the vineyard with 330 hectares of land where Los Balagueseslies, right next to the archaeological site of Las Pilillas, which was an Iberian wine production factory dated back to the seventh century B.C. There vines are being cultivated, as has been always, alongside the cultivation of cereal, olives and almonds.

In 1999 Andrés Valiente decided to build Bodegas Vegalfaro to bottle his own wines along with his son Rodolfo, Technical Director of Bodegas Vegalfaro. Previously, his great grandfather Leonardo made wine in his cellar (winery) and his grandfather, Joseph, was an Orujo distiller. Later, in February 2011, the winery received the qualification Pago, which is considered the highest ranking of a vineyard in Spain and from where wines with singular characteristics and qualities are obtained. This is a terroirreference comparable to those in other European countries such as: Chateau, Cru, Domaine and Clos in France, Castello in Italy and Quinta in Portugal .

After the harvest in the first hours of the morning, and after a selection of the best grapes, we proceed to make the separate elaboration of each vineyard of the estate and of each grape variety in order to interpret each vintage according to its weather conditions and its growth cycle.

The winemaking process follows a strict quality control and parameters are managed internally to avoid waste discharges back into the environment.

Our facilities are thermally insulated to ensure process reliability and the saving of energy.

For the aging of our wines we use oak barrels from French and Central European forests, besides a recent line of research with the aging of red wines in terracotta amphorae. With this method we obtain only hints of the wine aging, without the fruit sensation and the terroir being disguised.
