Contino Rosado is produced using the saignée method of three varieties: Mazuelo (1 x 500 l), Graciano (2x 500l) and Garnacha (2 x 500l). After few hours of being placed in separate wooden vats, are drained and racked to 500 litres barrel, where the alcoholic fermentation takes place.

“Viñedos del Contino was born in 1973, establishing the “château” concept in the Rioja region. Its wines are made exclusively from the vines planted on its 62 hectares. The estate’s vineyards embrace its ancestral home within a meander in the River Ebro, located in Laserna, near the village of Laguardia in the Rioja Alavesa region”
