Pago de los Capellanes El Picon is a 2021 Tempranillo from Ribera del Duero in Castilla y Leon, Spain.
Pago de los Capellanes sits about a kilometre from the village of Pedrosa de Duero. The name goes back to a 14th-century chaplainry, whose chaplains received small parcels of land from villagers. Their vineyards grow only Tinto Fino, as Tempranillo is known locally, across 35 parcels that are harvested and processed separately. Yields are held to 5,000 kg per hectare, below the 7,000 kg the Regulatory Council allows. Harvest starts in early October, after twice-daily sampling of each parcel. Their wines age in new French oak in an underground cellar ten metres below the surface. The winery was built around eight centuries-old walnut trees, and the first phase was completed in 1996.
