Guímaro Camiño Real is a red wine produced by Adega Guímaro in Sober, in the hear of D.O. Ribera Sacra.

Adega Guímaro was built at the beginning of the century. Here, wines are produced in a traditional way. In 1991, a large refurbishment was carried out. It improved its conditions and the winery is as of today one of the standards of the D.O. Ribeira Sacra.

Adega Guímaro practices an organic agriculture,respectful with its environment, always advocating for the local varieties.

Guímaro Camiño Real is a wine made mainly with Mencía, and 20% of other varieties like Red Grenache, Caíño Tinto, Mouratón and Sousón. These grapes come from several vineyards planted mostly on slate soils.

Once the grapes are harvested, they ferment with the stems in deposits of different materials with native yeasts. The subsequent ageing is in wooden deposits of different sizes for around 7 months. Once the wine is assembled in stainless steel deposits, it is bottled just before it is launched on the market.

Guímaro Camiño Real is a juicy, elegant and fresh wine. On the nose, the aromas of fresh red fruit stand out, with floral notes on a mineral background. In the mouth, it shows all its character, easy to drink and fresh. A wine with an amazing value for money.

Wines of Spain

With 2.9 million acres of land planted in wine grapes, Spain is the most widely planted wine producing nation and second largest producer in the world. Many styles of wine are produced in the country most of which are based on native grape varietals.

The two most famous regions are Rioja and Ribera del Duero for their Tempranillo production. Rioja Tempranillo (the classic) will be lighter and fresher with red fruit flavours as compared to those from Ribera del Duero that are often deep purple, higher in alcohol with more tannins and intense black fruit character. Rioja is also known for producing Garnacha (Grenache), as well as rich, nutty whites from the indigenous Viura varietal.

In the Catalonia region, Spain is recognized for making a sparkling wine in the traditional method but using native grape varieties. This is called Cava. Priorat, a subregion within Catalonia specializes in making still red blends of Garnacha, Carignan and often Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon in a bold and full-bodied style. Together with Rioja, wines from Priorat have achieved DOCa/DOQ status signifying their quality.

Sherry is Spain’s famous fortified wine which can either be completely dry, lusciously sweet or somewhere in between. This is made in the southern region of Jerez.

Other notable Spanish wine styles include: Monastrell (AKA. Mataro/Mourvèdre), produced in the Jumilla region and refreshing white Albariño and Verdejo from north western Galacia.
