The family winemaking project was started by José Alberto López in 2007, when he planted his first vines in the Guadalupe gorge, in the town of Francisco Zarco. The first grapes would be harvested in 2010.

In 2012, his son Santiago López joined the project, who from that moment worked as a winemaker for the winemaker, after obtaining a Diploma in Viticulture from the University of California, Davis. The awards begin to arrive, when obtaining two of his first wines, two medals. In this way, the concept of Premium Quality wines that we seek to achieve at Solar Fortún is reaffirmed.
