We produce the Ariyanas wines. Like our winery name Bentomiz, Ariyanas is an ancient local place name; it was the name of a Moorish hamlet that was next to our vineyard before the Reconquest. The word comes from the Arabic for “aromatic” – very appropriate! We have expanded the range with two new wines, PiXel and Rayya (see below). And in collaboration with Lobban Wines of Barcelona we produce two quality sparkling wines: definitely something to celebrate!
