Vinas del Cambrico Villanueva Rufete Organic 2016
- Country Spain
- Grape Rufete 100%
- Case size 6 / 75

- Aromas of strawberries, balsamic, and hints of mint and fresh floral are prominent. Flavours of mixed red berries and herbs with harmoniously balanced tannins and a long finish.
- Our most special wine is made with grapes from El Pocito in Villanueva del Conde, on a steeply sloping terraced hillside with granitic soil and abundant quartz at an altitude of 700 to 800 m. The vineyard was replanted in 1902, so most of the vines from which this wine is made date back to that year.

| Winery | Vinas del Cámbrico is based in one of Spain’s most recently granted DOs, Sierra de Salamanca, located at the southern end of Castilla y León. Since their first vintage in 2003, they have been making wines from the local Rufete and Rufete Blanca grapes, grown on old vines that are planted on granite and slate soil terraces. Over time the holdings have been expanded to cover ten hectares of vineyards – no easy task since this expansion involved negotiating and purchasing land from over 130 growers. From these vines, Vinas del Cambrico produces stellar examples of authentic, handcrafted wines, true to their region of origin and unique addition to the viticultural landscape of modern Spain. |
