Vintae confirmed acquired the company, which includes the winery with its winemaking and ageing facilities but told Just Drinks it is not using Hacienda Miguel Sanz\u2019s brands commercially, with the space being dedicated to production of its Bardos wines.<\/p>\n The deal completed in the middle of this year. After selling the Hacienda Miguel Sanz\u2019s operations have ceased, Vintae said. <\/p>\n Prior to the purchase, Vintae had made its Bardos wines in rented facilities at two different wineries in the province of Burgos. <\/p>\n Following the deal, Bardo production has been relocated to the newly acquired site. The entire 2025 harvest was processed at the new winery, the business said. It added that all wines from the facility would be marketed under the Bardo brands, as well as its other wines. <\/p>\n When asked about the rationale for the purchase, Vintae said its scale had outgrown rented space, meaning it required its own dedicated winery.<\/p>\n \u201cThis will allow us to work with greater precision and care,\u201d it added.<\/p>\n The Bardos portfolio includes the Bardos Vi\u00f1edos de Altura wine, a regional wine made exclusively with grapes from the Soria area, plus the Bardos Suprema, Bardos Moradillo de Roa and Bardos Vill\u00e1lvaro labels. <\/p>\n These wines are distributed in Spain and internationally.<\/p>\n Vintae has been active in Ribera del Duero since the early 2000s, initially producing in the P\u00e1ramos de Corcos area of Burgos province.<\/p>\n Almost a decade ago, it expanded into the Soria zone, and in 2020 planted vineyards in the villages of Alcubilla de Avellaneda and Vill\u00e1lvaro using massal selections of local varieties.<\/p>\n Earlier this year, the Spanish vintner regained full ownership of the local vermouth producer El Bandarra, after Diageo divested its minority stake<\/a>.<\/p>\n Speaking to Just Drinks at the time, Vintae CEO Ricardo Arambarri confirmed the Tanqueray owner had held a 25% stake in El Bandarra through its Distill Ventures accelerator programme, with Vintae retaining the controlling share.<\/p>\n Diageo halted new investment through Distill Ventures in March.<\/p>\n By repurchasing the shares, Arambarri said the family-owned Vintae aimed to \u201cconsolidate our position\u201d.<\/p>\n Just Drinks Excellence Awards – The Benefits of Entering<\/p>\n Gain the recognition you deserve!
