Enjoy the magic of extreme wines
Extreme wines are those that are produced in places with extreme weather and soil conditions, like deserts, mountainous areas, rugged terrain or with harsh winters, that allow to harvest fruits with unique flavors that turn to singular wines with an extraordinary personality.

Making the impossible possible
The idea of producing an exceptional grape in Costa Rica, a country where its tropical climate does not favor the cultivation of grapes, was something that seemed impossible.
However, the exceptional environment of Copey de Dota’s mountains, with a microclimate that compensates the humidity of the rest of the country and an exceptional soil rich in rocks, minerals, and natural spring water, made it seem like the perfect place to start this adventure.
Today, after many tries and the great effort of our viticulturist and agricultural team, we have managed to plant more than 35,000 vines on 15 hectares, always using the best and most sophisticated agricultural practices to obtain the best nutrients for our wines.
We are committed to creating exceptional wines of the highest quality.
