Bodegas Cornelio Dinastía was founded in 2014 in Navarrete (La Rioja). It was founded by José María Sánchez Antón, a chemical engineer, when he was 71 years old. He had previously been a partner in three wineries for 30 years, and winemaking runs in his family: both his paternal and maternal grandparents were already winemakers in the 1970s. Their motto is “Wine is made on the vine.” Its vineyards, called Vega Vella, are certified organic under European standards. They are located in the Eastern Rioja, on the northern plain of the Ebro River, at an elevation of about 400 meters. Winters there are cold and dry, and summers are warm. Rainfall is scarce and the cierzo wind blows, conditions that favor organic farming. The main grape variety is Tempranillo, along with Graciano and Garnacha. For white wines, they use Sauvignon Blanc and Garnacha Blanca
