The Wine
Carrasviñas Verdejo Barrica
In the Vineyard: The grapes for this wine come from our oldest vineyards located in Pozaldez. The poor and boulder gravelly soil provides the typical character of the Verdejo wines of Rueda
In the winery: Destemming and crushing of the grapes with a light pressing and spontaneous fermentation in French oak barrels of 500 and 300 liters. The wine is aged for 6 months where we regularly remove the lees, a technique called batonnâge, in order to achieve a more complex and structured wine
In the palate: Complex nose, hints of peach and pear, thyme, mint, vanilla and cinnamon, together with marked aromas of the typical aromas of this variety; white flowers, aniseed and nuts. The wine is unctuous in the mouth, broad and of remarkable structure, mineral and with a long spicy finish
Professional ratings: 91 points Parker.
The Producer
Bodegas Félix Lorenzo Cachazo
Founded in 1946, Bodegas Lorenzo Cachazo is about a family dedicated to making quality wines for several generations. The connection between their ancestors and their winemaking philosophy has remained intact for many years. Félix Lorenzo Cachazo started his journey in the world of wine working in one of the old underground wine cellars in the village of Pozaldez (Valladolid), giving life to the old “Amontillados” wines - a variety of sherry wines. There is little left of these strong and special wines, but we must not forget that they were the seed of today’s modern and successful Verdejo wines. Félix was one of the “inventors” of changing the winemaking style, a change that resulted in the salvation of the Verdejo grape which at that time was condemned to disappear, and the creation of the Rueda DO, with him as a founder. His son, Eduardo (the director), and daughter, Angela (the winemaker), continue this long-lasting winemaking tradition through several generations. They are all about tradition and preservation of the unique old vineyards of Rueda and work with small viticulturists with a focus to secure a centenary-old viticulture tradition with the new generations.
