Abstract

ABSTRACT: José de Medina Mercado, a councilmen in Aranda de Duero and bearer of the title of jus patronatus, was an important viticulturist and member of the political, social, and economic elite in this important town. He is considered the author of a Memoir that contains an almost continuous series of notes about the weather, harvests, and the different prices at which wine was sold – information that can help us to more precisely discuss viticulture’s evolution in the Ribera del Duero region during a time when trends were moving towards the crisis of the seventeenth century.
