About Camina
Bodegas Cristo de la Vega is located in the heart of the D.O.P La Mancha, in the small village of Socuellamos, in the province of Ciudad Real (Castilla la Mancha, Spain). It was founded in 1955 by 25 vine growers, giving continuity to the project that they already had in common for many year before. Year by year, Bodegas Cristo de la Vega has grown, elaborating better and more sophisticated wines, as the result of the enthusiasm of the whole village. The winery counts nowadays on nearly 60 years of experience and tradition, modern facilities as well as a huge “know-how” personalized in our human force.
Bodegas Cristo de la Vega relies on extensive vineyards belonging exclusively to the members of the winery. The landscape isn’t very hilly with an altitude around 700 meters above the sea level.
Our vineyards enjoy a continental climate with hot summers, long and cold winters with rainfall ranging from 300 to 400 mm. These extreme conditions favour the maturation process of the varieties grown in our vineyards, some of them of almost 100 years old.
We have varieties of Spanish as well as foreign origin that are perfectly suited to our conditions and after rigorous maturation controls on the field, they are welcomed in their best moment in order to elaborate them separately and so ensure the highest quality in our wines
