Two Winemaking Families, One Historic Cellar

Bodegas Crunar – a new chapter for the Valdepeñas cellars founded in 1904, uniting the Cruz and Navarro families.

Our Heritage

A Legacy of Spanish Wine

Our cellars in Valdepeñas were founded in 1904 by Doroteo Navarro Donado. For more than a century, the winery operated as Bodegas Navarro López under the stewardship of the Navarro López family, growing from a family bodega into one of Spain's most dynamic wine exporters.

In 2026, the winery began a new chapter. Vinos Patricio Cruz acquired the production facilities and historic cellars. The new brand, Bodegas Crunar, takes its name from both families (CRUz + NAvarRo), with Patricio Cruz and Francisco Navarro López as co-owners: the founding family remains in the business.

Bodegas Crunar S.L. operates the historic Valdepeñas cellars of the former Bodegas Navarro López. For our import partners, this means continuity: the same cellars, the same people, the same 7M+ litre capacity, and uninterrupted supply of the ranges you know.

Today, with over 70% of our production exported to more than 70 countries, we combine traditional winemaking values with modern facilities and a customer-first approach to international trade.
