Rey Santo 2023Javier Sanz Viticultor - 75 cl.

A white Calatayud wine from old Macabeo vines, for every thirst and occasion.

The region is mainly planted with red grapes but there are some white varietals to be found also, like Viura (Macabeu) and Chardonnay. The Urbezo Chardonnay is full of floral notes, hence the label. The estate was named after Urbezo, a poet and a great friend of the owner's.

Vetus means forbidden in latin. The vines stand at an altitude of 810 to 930 meters above sea level, in the northernmost zone of Rueda (Segoría). Here the harvest takes place 3 weeks after the rest of the DO. When the bottle is put in the fridge, the butterfly on the label turns blue (when the temperature is less than 8°C). Total production is 35.800 bottles.

Villa Narcisa is made with grapes from an old vineyard where a farm accommodating the harvesters used to stand. It was surrounded by narcissuses, hence its name.

This is the entry level wine of the estate - but also its flagship wine! The Dos Victorias owe it their fame. José Pariente was Marivi's father, who looked after the old vines of the estate for all his life.

The DO Rueda and José Pariente owe much of their notoriety to the Verdejo grape. Yet, Sauvignon is also very important for the region. At José Pariente's, 2007 was the first vintage of this very successful project. José died just before the wine received its name. This cuvée represents 10% of the total production of the bodega.
