This initiative was funded by the European Union\u2019s FEAGA programme (Project No. 38-INV2024-56), supporting the modernisation of the wine sector.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Among the actions carried out, a <strong>new automated temperature and humidity control system was installed in the barrel ageing rooms<\/strong>. This ensures optimal ageing conditions by preventing wine losses through evapotranspiration and helping maintain consistent environmental parameters.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A 50-hectolitre pneumatic press was also acquired, significantly improving the extraction process for white wines and increasing efficiency in red wine pressing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In terms of logistics, custom-made cradles were added to facilitate the handling of 500-litre barrels, improving ergonomics and workflow in the winery. In addition, 176 new French oak barrels were introduced, sourced from different cooperages and with varied toasting levels, to enhance the complexity and character of each vintage.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A key element of the project was the installation of a perimeter security system. <a href=\"https:\/\/contino.es\/en\/enoexperience\/\">Vi\u00f1edos del Contino is located in a truly privileged setting<\/a>: surrounded by vineyards and nestled along the Ebro River, in a natural landscape of great beauty and tranquillity. While this location\u2014far from urban centres\u2014is one of its defining charms, it also calls for specific security measures to ensure the protection of the winery and its wines at all times.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finally, a 40-hl <em>foudre<\/em> was added for the ageing of San Rafael, Contino\u2019s garnacha-based wine. This large-format oak vessel helps preserve the wine\u2019s varietal freshness and contributes greater complexity to its final expression.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Through this investment, Contino reinforces its commitment to excellence, innovation, and respect for its identity and natural surroundings.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 2024, Vi\u00f1edos del Contino launched an ambitious investment project aimed at improving its winery facilities, boosting operational efficiency, and enhancing wine care throughout the production process.
