Wachisnais Winery

Wachisnais is a small artisan family project born in the heart of Ribera del Duero, in the little Castilian village of Pedrosa de Duero, Burgos. Created by three friends — Paco, Noe, and Juan Pablo, under the MN Vinos umbrella — Wachisnais was born from a shared passion for authenticity, craftsmanship, and above all, vermouth. The name captures the festive, community spirit of aperitif culture in the villages of Castile: that beloved Sunday ritual of gathering for vermouth after mass, a simple yet deeply rooted social tradition that the founders decided to transform into a form of art. The philosophy behind this small winery is to blend the elegance of simple things with the authenticity of artisan production. To achieve this, they work with grape varieties native to their surroundings — Tinto Fino, Albillo Mayor, and Verdejo — macerating up to 37 carefully selected botanicals to create complex and distinctive profiles. Among their most notable expressions is Vermut Wachisnais Tintorro, a semi-dry vermouth with a deep mahogany colour and notes of ripe fruit, spices, citrus, cocoa, coffee, and caramel — a well-rounded and characteristic expression of Ribera del Duero. Wachisnais Pedrosini, on the other hand, is a personal interpretation of the classic Italian white vermouth with a nod to its Castilian roots: pale amber in colour with a refined, spiced and citrus-driven profile. Rounding out the range is Wachisnais Celestial, a special edition of the Tintorro aged for nine months in barrel and blended with the sweet liqueur wine Rita Hetvin, resulting in a vermouth of remarkable complexity, elegance, and personality. Wachisnais is, in essence, an honest project that champions vermouth as a cultural and gastronomic expression of a territory, crafted with care and the conviction that the greatest pleasures are also the simplest ones.
