Since 1990, the company has been proudly run by the fourth generation of the family, with the name “Faustino” chosen as a tribute to the father, Faustino Martinez Arkoz.

The heart of the brand, the winery, is located in the renowned Rioja wine region in Spain. This location is not only known for its picturesque landscapes, but also for producing some of the world’s most prized wines, including those of Faustino.
