Who makes it
Traditional winemaking methods accompanied Bodegas Celaya's founding. D. Florindo Celaya Aranda established the producer in 1927, and family ownership forms part of its history. Bayanegra is the primary commercial brand, with several grape varieties named across the range.
Where it grows
At Bodegas Celaya, La Roda is the village, Albacete the province and La Mancha D.O. the regional designation. Bayanegra Tempranillo uses Tempranillo grapes sourced from Castilla. No altitude, soil, climate or vineyard ownership detail is specified for the vineyards.
