Bodegas Contador (鐘樓) 由西班牙傳奇釀酒師Benjamin Romeo 一手打做。呢位天才同時係一個完美主義者, 所有釀酒過程都要參與, 甚至連軟木塞都自己親自渣車去揀軟木既樹。
旗艦酒Contador 2000年就得到Robert Parker的98高分肯定，而2004與2005兩年更蟬聯100分
呢支La Vina de Andres Romeo以佢父親為名, 以Single Vineyard既葡萄做出黎, 有別於Bodegas Contador其他酒款都係以唔同Vineyard醸製
塊田只有3 Hectares, 收成, 揀葡萄全部人手做 唔用機器,
相對之下呢支La Vina de Andres Romeo更能體現到當地風土
