Bodegas Ateca is one of the seven companies that compose the Gil Family Estates, a project that unifies a series of selected and interesting wineries from different DOs in Spain, each with its own personality. The winery was established in 2005 and is situated in the town of Ateca, 14 kilometres from Calatayud (Zaragoza). Their 55 hectares of vineyards, which are divided up into small sites, are planted predominantly with old Grenache vines on slate soils and can be found at  higher elevations around the hillsides of the Ateca mountains.
