The story of the Nekeas Valley is one of stubborn resilience and very steep hills. While industrialization in nearby Pamplona almost killed off the local wine scene in the mid-20th century, the "original" grape-growing families weren't about to let centuries of history slide down a ravine. Since the 1990s, the descendants of these vine-obsessed pioneers have been reclaiming the impossibly steep slopes of Navarra. Scaling altitudes between 450 and 650 meters, these winemakers are part-athlete, part-alchemist, working a landscape so irregular it seems to face every direction at once. It’s a true family revival that has turned "challenging terrain" into some of the most characterful, elegant wines in Spain
