Bodegas Ismael Arroyo is a family-run winery located in Sotillo de la Ribera, on a mountain dotted with traditional wineries and wine presses, surrounded by vineyards and hills. It was founded in 1979 by Ismael Arroyo, who joined forces with a small number of wine producers to create the Ribera del Duero Designation of Origin, which was approved in 1982.

Wine is aged in a 16th-century underground wine cellar. Around 2,000 m2 of galleries were carved out of the rock by hand by Ismael Arroyo’s ancestors over 400 years ago. The length, age and beauty of these galleries and the quality of the soil make it a unique construction, not only in the Ribera del Duero but probably in the whole of Spain. This historic winery where we age ValSotillo red wine in casks is a genuine wine cathedral that is open to visitors.
