Spain

Details: The small area of Rueda, nestles between Ribeiro del Duero, Toro and Portugal. This area is subject to long periods of intense sunshine, which allows the indigenous grape varieties to flourish. Here the local grape, the Prieto Picudo,
contributes a massive fruity flavour, and then it is blended with a little Tempranillo, to add the vinosity and the alcohol. Superb for that glass of nice red, or can be drunk with blue cheeses.
