HISTORY In 1933, Mr. Mariano Zuazo acquired 8 hectares of clayed-clacareous land situated 3 kilometres from Oyón, in Rioja Alavesa. Given the magnificent characteristics of the property, the Zuazo Gaston family decide to convert the holding into a vineyard with Tempranillo and Graciano varieties. After more than thirty years, it is found to be at the height of maximum quality. It was the first Rioja holding to collaborate on the Basque and European Governments development project, on precision varieties growing for the efficient handling and
quality of vineyards.
