The manager of the winery, Francisco Cambronero, has expressed his satisfaction given that it was the first time he had presented his wines to this prestigious guide, "and to have received four gold medals makes us proud, helps us to continue developing our organic grape project and strengthens our position in the markets," the Manchegan winemaker affirmed.

The Vinos Cambronero winery only produces organic signature wines which are bottled under the Franchete and Finca Lastonar brand names. The exquisite wines are produced exclusively using organic grapes from the vine varieties of the family holding: Cabernet Sauvignon, Bobal, Tempranillo, Syrah, Petit Verdot and Alicante Bouschet.

The four gold medals were awarded to the following organic red wines:
Franchtete: Assemblage - 2011;
Franchtete Cabernet Sauvignon;
