Bodega SOMMOS

An avant-guard winery
at the heart of Somontano.

SOMMOS, an avant-guard winery at the heart of the Somontano region. Geometric play transforms the intertwining cubes of Sommos into a prism for architecture that is internationally renowned in the press as “one of the architectural wonders of the winemaking world”. This is where we pursue knowledge and the aspiration to be much more than just a wine-producing facility.

ARCHITECTURE,
DESIGN
AND FUNCTIONALITY

Built of steel and glass, the architecture of the Sommos winery is singular in strength as well as form as it rises in harmony with the vineyards that surround it, each angle transposed with the progress and rhythm of the seasons.

MAKING WINE WITH GRAVITY

Reaching heights of 27 metres, our lofty new winemaking space is designed to exploit gravity to move our grapes as they transform into must and then wine,
avoiding the conventional use of pumps.

French oak vats and stainless steel and concrete tanks of varying sizes enable us to separate each parcel during vinification
to foster the potential of its terroir in individual wines.

We use optical sorting equipment to select each and every berry that meets our optimum quality requirements.

MOONLIGHT
HARVEST

The fruit of our vines is harvested under the light of the moon, when temperatures are at their lowest and we can collect the berries without sacrificing any of their quality. A layer of dry ice staves off fermentation in hermetically sealed isothermal trailers that prevent dust and insects from interfering with the journey to the winery.

R+D+i

Innovative use of the latest technology is what makes Bodega SOMMOS different. We make it our priority to take nothing less than the utmost care of our raw material.
Continuous innovation is the winery’s highlight, with improvements such as the pneumatic vertical press and Cartesian explorer robot.
We also work with yeast multipliers, which make it possible for us to select our own natural yeasts.
