BODEGAS NABAL

NABAL: who and where we are

Bodegas Nabal is located in the Burgos area of Ribera del Duero, created by the Navarro Balbás family after a winemaking experience of more than three decades. They come from the nearby Lerma town, belonging to Arlanza DO, an increasing-expanding vinegrowing area which they are proud developers of.Bodegas Nabal, which is placed in Gumiel de Izán, was recently created and designed by the winemaker himself, Oscar Navarro, one of the co-owners. His aim was to build his very own personal family-owned project together with his siblings based in efficiency in the winemaking process while maintaining the old procedures, respecting the winegrowing and the winemaking times. Bodegas Nabal also includes an attractive wine tourism project.

Vineyards

Nabal wines are made mainly of Tempranillo variety planted in Gumiel de Izán and nearby villages, where microplots of ungrafted old bushed vines can be found, surrounded by wild forests of pines, aromatic herbs and local flora. These unique features make a difference in Tempranillo variety whose vines grow on clay-sandy soils at an altitude of 860m. Furthermore, average age of these vines are more than 80 years old, which means that all the works, like pruning and harvest, are generally made by hand, really carefully, keeping slow times and natural characteristics of the vines.
