Barco del Corneta is an artisan winery committed to recovering the essence of Verdejo, respecting the identity of the grape variety, the soil and the climate. From the 2014 vintage, Barco del Corneta and Cucú have grown in production and two new wines have appeared: a Verdejo from old vines, from centenary vines, and a red wine from Arribes del Duero, mainly made with the native variety Juan García.
