AboutBodegas Contreras Ruiz
Bodegas Contreras Ruiz is a family winery in Rociana del Condado, close to Doñana and the Atlantic coast. Its 1868 cellar has five high-ceilinged halls framed by ironwork characteristic of southern Spain. Third-generation cousins Antonio Francisco and José Joaquín Contreras lead the family’s work on wines from individual vineyard parcels.
Nine family-owned vineyard sites have plantings dating from the 1940s to the late 1990s. Zalema, the local white grape, accounts for around ninety percent of the planted area.
