Santos Ortiz, of Spanish origin, and Ioana Paunescu from Romania, started from scratch in 2011, \u201ccon palicos y canicas\u201d as they say in the region. This means that they were short of financial resources, but had an extraordinary talent for creating wines and coordinating financial, marketing and sales department. \u201cWe launched a Project doing the opposite to what the books tell you or what you see in the industry.”<\/p>\n
A\ufb05er almost 6 months looking for a place to set up, they fell in love with a spectacular farm in an area known as the carpenter\u2019s place, an elevated area of bunkers which had everything they wanted \u2013 it was high up so they could enjoy the beauty of the landscape and surrounded by their vineyards (Monastrell), which are well cared for and older than their combined ages. Located just a few kilometers away from the historical city of Jumilla, the winery has 35 hectares of vineyard, housing mostly native varieties like Monastrell.<\/p>\n
Since the beginning, Ego Bodegas has taken a contemporary twist on wine-making\u00a0 and combined traditional methods with modern techniques. Their grapes are fermented separately in steel tanks, with capacities ranging from 4,000 to 12,000 kilograms.<\/p>\n
Each bottle of wine from Ego bodegas carries the principles on which the winery was founded upon: Ego, Talento, and Infinito.<\/p>\n
Ego: The concept of I. Talento: The ability to perform and carry out a task. Infinito: The power to dream without borders.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>
