Origin, authenticity, devotion and avant-garde.
The winery in the heart of Ribera del Duero’s Golden Mile
Tresmano benefits from great vineyards located in three of the best wine subzones within Ribera del Duero. The passion to discover and purchase old vineyards in Spain and produce outstanding red wines came together seeking to build a state-of-the-art winery incorporating the latest techniques in modern winemaking while keeping the highest respect for tradition.
The region to consolidate these requirements could not be other than Ribera del Duero, well-known for its rich wine history and excellent vineyards. By acknowledging the potential of this region and the superb conditions it offers, Tresmano established itself next to the most emblematic wineries in Spain. The winery’s breathtaking views of Peñafiel Castle and the historical treasures such as the Vacceo archaeological site of Pintia make it a great destination for those seeking a memorable experience in the wine and culture world.
The Winery
The concept of the winery, developed by the architectural firm Konkrit Blu, aims to integrate the building within the landscape minimizing the visual impact and respecting the environment.
The project’s strategy was based on taking advantage of the unevenness of the plot to partly bury the building—to the North, the five harvest doors connect the field with the production room and serve as gravity discharging points for the grape, as it was done in the past.
Gravity promotes both final product quality and energy optimization.
Light is another fundamental factor in this project—light in greater or lesser incidence on mass and space. Thus, in the maturing room where barrels lie, buried in silence, the incoming light is minimal and indirect, in contrast to the winemaking room, bathed in natural light.
In this architecture, the chosen material—on-site concrete—represents the whole material providing continuity to the ground from the ground, while serving as a thermal insulator, thereby reducing the use of forced conditioning and ventilation.
Furthermore, solar incidence is controlled using a horizontal aluminium sheet system along the curtain wall.
This way, the ergonomics of the winery having two elongated-shape faces offers functional benefits with good light conditions, natural ventilation, maximum thermal insulation—in winemaking, ageing, and maturing rooms—and connection between its interior spaces.
