In the second half of the 19th century, the Hidalgo family began winemaking, starting with wine soleras and vineyards they owned.

By the early 20th century, D. Emilio Hidalgo e Hidalgo already had a well-established business, with a branch in London and a presence in numerous countries. Since 1970, already incorporated as a public limited company, it has developed significant export activities to markets in England, Holland, Germany, and Austria, as well as to the United States, Japan, Denmark, Italy, France, and Belgium.

Currently, extraordinary founding collections of wine and brandy have been continued, expanded, and enriched, with the fifth generation of the founding family now dedicated to the winemaking business.
