History and Vineyard
Vinatura emerged from the passion of chemical engineer Hans Duer Andresen, inspired by Baja California's Valle de Guadalupe. Founded in 2013 in Querétaro's Valle de Colón, the 20-hectare estate cultivates over 100,000 vines across 15 varieties, including Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Tempranillo, Malbec, Riesling, and Gewürztraminer. The family employs viticultura razonada, respecting the franco-arcilloso soil, calcáreo tepetate layer, and pedregosa base to yield 200 tons of grapes annually. Guided by enologist Hugo D’Acosta, they focus on micro-vinifications in square tanks, capturing the region's unique terroir in 17 labels across varietals, terruños, and special editions.Wine Production and Awards
Wines undergo manual grape selection, gentle pressing, and controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks, with aging in French and American oak barrels for select cuvées. Standouts include Terruño Blanco blends earning gold at México Selection 2022, Espuma Bajío sparkling wines, and robust Tempranillo-Nebbiolo reds. Notes range from fruity cherry and blackberry to spicy eucalyptus and cinnamon, paired ideally with regional dishes. The winery has secured 18 medals from competitions like Sélections Mondiales des Vins Canada and Global Wine awards.Envero Restaurant Experience
