The history of Bodega Contador began in 1995, when the winemaker and viticulturist Benjamín Romeo acquired a century-old cave beneath the castle of San Vicente de la Sonsierra (La Rioja). In 1996 he produced the first vintage of his wine “La Cueva del Contador” there and began to buy vines for his winery project.
During the following years he carried out small-scale winemaking in the cave and continued to acquire vineyards. In 1999 he produced the first vintage of his wine “Contador”.
In 2000, after seeing the positive reception of these first wines by the market and the specialized media, Benjamin decided to dedicate himself exclusively to his personal project.
