The Wine The Wine
Spain
Region:Castilla y León
This old vine Verdejo is from a plot planted more than 150 years ago on sandy and calcareous soil. These vines produce extremely low yields of astonishing quality, which are carefully hand harvested. As with his approach in the vineyard, Manuel's winemaking is as minimal intervention as possible, with little (if any) use of sulphur and a native yeast fermentation in French oak barrels. La Otea is then aged eleven months in barrels and another eleven months in stainless steel to develop its unique and precious character.
The Winemaker The Winemaker
Manuel Cantalapiedra
Manuel, son of Issac and the founder of this cracking Rueda estate, shares a love for Verdejo with his father and continues to create seriously expressive and unique wines that are organic, made according to biodynamic principles, and are completely natural with no added sulphites.
"A harmonious combination of baked apples, dried herbs and chamomile flower, with a struck-match minerality. It has a mighty savoury palate: umami, refreshing acidity and a nice bitter finish." - Manuel Cantalapiedra, Winemaker.
