Manuel Olmo

Coming Up

The role of gerente at Ecovitis, Sierra Norte y Bodegas Olcaviana puts Manuel Olmo in a line of work that joins cellar decisions to company management. In that position, the craft is not limited to making wine; it also includes the coordination, discipline, and long view needed to keep a winery operating with purpose. Sustainability is stated as a working aim rather than a slogan. “We are determined for our activity at Bodegas Sierra Norte to become increasingly sustainable,” Manuel Olmo says, and the line is plain enough to stand on its own. It frames the method: measured, practical, and shaped by what the next vintages and the next years will ask of the business.

Where They Are Now

At Bodegas Sierra Norte in Requena, the work of winemaking meets ownership and management in the same address. Manuel Olmo’s role there ties the cellar to the wider company, so that technical choices and operational responsibility move together instead of sitting in separate lanes.

Signature

Manuel's signature wines include Cerro Bercial, Fuenteseca, Ladera los Cantos, and Mariluna. Taken together, these names sketch the range of his work: wines that stand as markers of his style and the identity of Bodegas Sierra Norte. They form the most immediate expression of his craft, the bottles through which his role can be most clearly tasted and recognized.

In Their Words “We are determined for our activity at Bodegas Sierra Norte to become increasingly sustainable.”

Honors
