The Casamaro Blanco from Garciarevalo is our top-selling Rueda wine, and for good reason. The 85% Verdejo and 15% Viura come from plants with vine age spanning 15-145 years (the sandy soils here equals a high proportion of pre-phylloxerra vines) yield uncommon quality and pedigree, especially given the fare. 100% free run juice, fermented and aged in stainless steel, bottled directly from tank gives us a fresh, lively style. Vibrant aromas of grapefruit, lemon, green apple and white flowers lead into tangy, penetrating, citrus fruit and quince flavors and a hint of fennel in the lively finish.
Garciarévalo is a family-owned winery established in 1991 in the town of Matapozuelos, in the heart of the Rueda wine region in Castilla y León. The winery was founded by Jose Antonio Arévalo and Benicio Garcia, who understood they had something extraordinary in their centenary vineyards of indigenous verdejo, which had always been famous for giving the best grapes in the Rueda appellation.
The current generation is a young, vibrant team led by Antonio and Manuela Arévalo; Rodrigo Arévalo is in charge of viticulture and vineyard management and Reyes Martínez Sagarra is the oenologist and winemaker. Garciarevalo is truly a tight-knit, family winery producing some of the most vibrant white wines in Spain while breathing economic life into their small village of one thousand inhabitants. Antonio Arévalo originally studied economics, as his parents encouraged him to work in anything other than rural agriculture. Yet, like his parents, he too felt the deep commitment to his family village and connection to the historic vineyards, joining the family winery in 1995.
Garciarévalo specializes in old-vine verdejo, with minor plantings of viura. While many newcomers to the region planted the trendy sauvignon blanc (which is ill-suited to the climate), Garciarévalo has always protected and exalted their indigenous verdejo variety. Their estate vineyards consist primarily of vines of over 100 years old, including a plot of pre-phylloxera verdejo vines over 130 years old, all planted in the traditional bush-vine system.
White Wine DO Rueda. Varieties: Verdejo and Viura. Grapes from our farms located in Matapozuelos. Straw yellow wine with greenish reflections and a very bright disc.
Very clean aromas, where white fruit and tropical fruit stand out. In the mouth it is smooth, light, fresh and sparkling. It envelops us and fills us with freshness, it has a peculiar bitter finish typical of the Verdejo variety. Try it with soft fish, sausages or dare to do it with thin, not very strong cheeses. Serving temperature: between 8º and 10º C
