Located in the stunning Serrania de Ronda region of Andalusia, Bodega F. Schatz is a family-owned winery with a rich history. The Schatz family, originally from Southern Tyrol, Italy, and later from Korb in southern Germany, has been crafting exceptional wines since 1641. In 1982, Friedrich Schatz took over the family business with a vision to create sophisticated wines, revitalizing ancient vineyards once tended by the Iberians and Romans in Acinipo. He has also modernized the winery, incorporating advanced technology into the winemaking process.
Bodega F. Schatz cultivates a three-hectare vineyard known as Finca Sanguijuela, producing six organic wines from nine grape varieties. The winery specializes in organic, biodynamic, and natural wines, all crafted without added sulfites. The vineyard grows Lemberger, Pinot Noir, Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot, alongside Petit Verdot, Chardonnay, and Moscatel Negro. These high-quality grapes contribute to a diverse range of wines under the Sierras de Malaga DO label, including exquisite red and white wines, as well as a refreshing bone-dry rosé.
At Bodega F. Schatz, all grapes are harvested by hand to ensure only the finest bunches are selected. The winery employs modern techniques for crushing and pressing, followed by fermentation in open vats. For aging, the wines are stored in French, Slovenian, and American oak barrels, allowing for optimal maturation. Once the wines have aged to perfection, they are bottled and made available for wine enthusiasts to enjoy.

Write a reviewAn unforgettable experience in an unbeatable setting. From the first moment we were captivated by the history of the winery and the passion with which our guide told it. You can tell when someone puts effort and love into what they do. The wine process from the vine to the bottle is fascinating and the tasting was an absolute delight: aromas, nuances and exceptional quality. If I had to make a small complaint: the temperature in the tasting room was perhaps a little cool, but that did not spoil the experience at all. As a final touch, we were lucky enough to meet Federico, a humble person who is passionate about his work. Without a doubt, we will be back soon.

Really enjoyed our tour and wine tasting. It’s nice to hear about the history of wine in the Ronda region and try some excellent wines that are just a little different from what you normally taste from the same varietals. Really enjoyed the Petite Verdot and the Pino Noir

Yesterday we visited the Bodega Schatz, having been recommended by a friend to do so, and we are so glad we did! If you want to understand the history of wine in the Ronda area, you really should start at Schatz. Our guide, Gemma, was absolutely excellent, so knowledgeable, clearly passionate and held our attention with her animated delivery.
