- Crape 100% Rufete Blanca
- Country Spain

- 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. The granite white Rufete is slightly less concentrated and unctuous than the slate and slightly less sweet.

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 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, Viñas del Cámbrico produces stellar examples of authentic, handcrafted wines, true to their region of origin and unique addition to the viticultural landscape of modern Spain. |
