The name of Ochoa has been famous in Navarra since the 14th century, as witnessed by the fascinating document above. It states that Ochoa de Ayanz, wine master of Olite, was to be paid 36 ‘libras’ (pounds) and 20 ‘sueldos’ for 216.5 ‘carapitos’ of wine. The bill is dated 1370 and made out to Queen Juana, first-born daughter of the King of France, Queen of Navarra, Countess of Evreux and wife of Carlos II of Spain.
