Rioja is the oldest Qualified Denomination of Origin in Spain (1925) and the first to obtain the Qualified Designation (1991). Murillo de Río Leza is a village framed within that Qualified Denomination of Origin Rioja (DOCa Rioja) 14 km from Logroño (Capital of La Rioja Region) and 407 meters above sea level.
The Mediterranean climate, with a low level of rainfall well distributed during the year, and the predominance of crop in rain-fed, make Murillo a privileged settlement for the cultivation of the vine that leads in a maximum quality of grapes, thanks to naturally regulating the production by means of the natural water stress suffered by the plant.
