Rey Santo Javier Sanz Rueda Viura Verdejo is made from 85% Verdejo and 15% Viura grapes. It has a complex nose of green apple and tropical fruits. Dry, lush and full of citrus on the palate with excellent length, perfect balance and acidity.
Red fruit flavours give way to gentle tannins and a bright seam of acidity. There are subtle herbal notes to complement the fruit, but balance and elegance are key.
A vivid expression of the Verdejo grape, with its characteristic notes of fennel, green apple, cut hay and peach, this wine is also imbued with an extra depth and richness in the mouth. A very satisfying, fuller-bodied style of Rueda.
On the nose it reveals its intense varietal character with the classic aniseed and fennel aromas of the verdejo grape. A fresh attack with good backbone and length, as well as a certain mineral character which clearly reflects the Rueda terroir.
Vibrant varietal notes of sweet grapefruit and pineapple combine with anise, fennel and floral notes. Bone dry with a crisp, refreshing palate and a lively finish.
Elegant strawberry and blackcurrant fruit has been given the merest hint of vanilla and spice from a short spell in oak. Smooth and powerful on the palate, with an elegantly appetising finish.
Pale yellow colour with greenish hints. A complex nose with hints of fresh grass over a mineral base with abundant fresh fruit - citrus, pineapple and melon. Fresh and aromatic with a long, clean finish.
Clear red colour and delicate floral, red berry notes lead into a palate that balances the mineral richness of old vines with a beautifully light touch. Delicately structured, with subtle herbal notes to complement the fruit, and a mouth-watering finish.
Expressive aromas of red fruits, sweet cherry and hints of liquorice are enhanced by harmonious oaky undertones. A modern wine with a smooth texture and a good weight, the ripe fruits are carried across the palate with delicious hints of spice through to a long finish.
The delicate orange colour indicates time spent on its skins, as does the gentle tannic grip and almost waxy texture. Behind this there are notes of ripe stone fruits, alongside elegant floral hints and a stony, mineral finish.
Complex, powerful aromas of black fruit, vanilla and balsamic hints. Broad in the mouth, with good structure and complex flavours of dark fruits, spices and vanilla.
A crisp, intense and fresh wine which delivers an abundance of vibrant fruit flavours with background notes of spicy oak. The palate is round and beautifully balanced with a deep fruit flavour through to a long-lasting finish.
A perfect combination of pure cherry fruit and wild herbs, with some appealing earthy notes on the finish. The thin skins give light and supple tannins whilst a refreshing acidity helps to maintain balance. The almost ethereal nature of this wine is reminiscent of Pinot Noir, yet Rufete has its own distinct personality and charm.
A complex wine full of finesse, with fruity notes of blackberry, cherry and liquorice enveloped in exquisitely integrated oak. A full bodied palate with ripe tannins finishes with textured, long lasting depth.
A compelling showcase for the qualities of Rufete Blanca. The floral notes and crisp green apple fruit combine perfectly with a firm mineral seam that runs through the wine, carried by the dense, mouth-filling texture and subtle tannic grip that the thick skins bring to the wine.
An intense and complex wine with delicious aromas of ripe, dark fruits, liquorice, mineral and spice with roasted notes from the oak ageing. The aromas are echoed on the palate which is smooth with fine grained tannins and a long finish. An elegant expression of Tempranillo.
