Los Yelsones is a Tempranillo vineyard planted in 1970, with south-eastern exposure and soil composed of both glacial moraine and igneous material, conferring beautiful freshness and balance on the wine grown here. Cuentavinas was founded by Eduardo Eguren and Carlota Gonzalez: fifth generation of the illustrious Eguren family, pre-eminent name in the wine world, which has accrued savoir-faire over the decades through such prestigious projects as Sierra Cantabria, Vinedos de Paganos and Teso la Monja. Eduardo felt the need to remain near San Vicente de la Sonsierra, town of his fathers, so with the characteristic patience required for anything that needs to be developed slowly, he and Carlota went on innumerable sorties to scour the local districts at the foot of El Tolono (mountain) to seek something that would fill them with enthusiasm. In the miniscule village of Pecina, they found the essence of what they were searching for. Like a journey to a wonderful old tale, its few streets preserve the essence of the past, with restored wine presses and and few, but beautiful, ancient stone houses. They also found the perfect link to the family's history, since Edu's maternal grandfather was nicknamed 'el pecinero.' It is not clear if they chose the place, or the place chose them.
