Finca los Aljibes

What Finca los Aljibes does

Finca los Aljibes is a privately held, family-owned Spanish agricultural estate headquartered in Chinchilla de Montearagón, Albacete (La Mancha region), within the Vino de la Tierra de Castilla denomination. The estate integrates four operating units on a single site: a winery (Bodega Los Aljibes) producing wines from 178 hectares of owned vineyards cultivated at approximately 1,000 meters altitude; a Yeguada breeding Pure Spanish Horses (Pura Raza Española) under founder Manuel Lorenzo Ródenas; an olive tree plantation producing estate-bottled extra virgin olive oil; and ancillary gourmet production (lavender honey, artisanal sausages from wild boar and deer, lavender essence, and soap). Winemaking combines a three-stage grape selection process, stainless steel tanks with auto-macerators and inner waterfalls for temperature control, malolactic fermentation in 18 French oak vats of 10,000 liters and French oak fudres of 5,000 liters, and aging in controlled-environment cellars using French and American oak barrels under four years old.

The product portfolio is structured across multiple wine brands spanning price tiers: Viña Aljibes (entry level, ~€6), Aljibes (mid-premium, €7.35–€15.68), Selectus (premium reserve, €23.55–€56.33), Enclave de Los Aljibes, La Galana, and a Cava Brut Nature. Olive oil is sold in five formats (0.25L–5L), and the estate offers branded wine accessories, a subscription-based Club del Vino, and ancillary products including lavender honey, lavender essence, artisanal soap, and craft sausages.

Revenue is generated through five primary streams: direct-to-consumer wine and olive oil sales via an e-commerce site (minimum 6-bottle order, free shipping over €50–€70 within Spain peninsula, international shipping by phone); enotourism visits (Basic €20, Complete €30 including horse carriage ride and tastings); event hosting for weddings, corporate events, baptisms, communions, congresses, and product launches; horse breeding stock sales and equestrian services; and a wine club subscription. The go-to-market is a hybrid DTC/event-driven model, with marketing executed through a four-language website (Spanish, English, Japanese, Chinese) and organic social on Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest. No external venture, private equity, or institutional investment is evidenced; the business is independently owned and operated with 11–50 employees.
