Contemporary Architecture in Spain

Protos Winery

Peñafiel, Valladolid

A perfect blend of wood, ceramics and glass. This is how we would describe these wineries designed by the Pritzker Prize-winning Richard Rogers Architectural Studio, with the collaboration of Alonso Balaguer and Associated Architects from Spain.

The aim of the design was a contemporary reinterpretation of traditional structures relating to wine. The main building has cellars dug out in the ground which are connected with those which have existed since time immemorial under the hill on which stands Peñafiel Castle.
