The wine region of Sierra de Salamanca
DOP of Castile and León (2010) south-west of Salamanca on the Sierra de Francia, terraced vineyards on schist and granite, century-old vines, temperate continental climate. Rufete is the signature indigenous red (≥60%, "Spanish Pinot Noir"): fine and ethereal with cherry, raspberry, flowers, garrigue and a schistous mineral note, fresh altitude acidity and melted tannins. Garnacha and Tempranillo as complements. Viura and Moscatel as whites.
The wine region of Castille-et-Léon
Cradle of great Castilian reds on high-altitude plateaus (450-1000 m) of the Duero. Tempranillo king (Tinto Fino, Tinta de Toro): powerful, structured reds with notes of black cherry, blackberry, plum, leather and spices, firm tannins and length worthy of long ageing. Stars: Ribera del Duero (Vega Sicilia, Pingus), fleshy Toro, Bierzo (fresh mineral Mencía). Lively herbaceous Verdejo whites from Rueda, cut grass and citrus.
The word of the wine: Over-ripeness
Characteristic of grapes harvested late, rich in sugar, which give wines often mellow and marked by candied aromas.
