Tinedo

The estate of Finca Tinedo in the province of Ciudad Real in rural La Mancha dates to the mid-1700s. Its current owners, the Álvarez-Arenas family, acquired the property and planted vines in 1846. Over 175+ years and many generations, they remain in charge today, led by Manuel Álvarez-Arenas. Several families working for the estate count multiple generations as well.

Today, Tinedo farms 48 hectares of vines on gently rolling hills with heterogenous soils at around 700 meters of altitude. The estate is not only certified organic, but is also deeply dedicated to soil conservation, efficient water management, and responsible energy use: 100% of the energy used to run the winery comes from their own solar panels. They are committed to the long, hard path of sustainable revitalization of this part of Spain.

These practices ensure rich biodiversity, keep pests and diseases at bay, and allow for natural-yeast fermentation. The results are deliciously drinkable and intensely honest wines of great value, and we are proud to offer their all-estate varietal Tempranillo ‘JA!’ (pronounced ha) as sole United States importer.
