About this Wine
Cullerot' is a tadpole in Valenciana (the local variant of Catalan), and symbolises the Catalayud's desire to "grow and improve" (from a tadpole to something more) in their quest to "elaborate interesting white in a red wines land". 2013 is the 4th release of Cullerot, focusing more each year on rebirthing the local Verdil. Verdil 30%, PX 30%, Chardonnay 30%, Malvasia, de-stemmed, fermented as separate varieties in inox, then blended and aged 6 months in amphorae. The PX is 70 years old, the Verdil and Malvasia are 30.

This is a wine of entirely Mediterranean affect: delicious, calm, gentle. Herbal tisane and golden paddock floral aromatics over pear and an apricot hint, with the local Arinoso sand soil character coming through clearly on nose and palate. Almost honey-rich, with touches of stone, anise and straw, but not deft, not heavy. The mouth has good volume and ends neatly, edged by spice, fruit skin and a touch of steely mineral. Maturation in clay jars gives an open and mature textural character akin to that engendered by wood ageing, but without any overlay of wood flavour, nor any oxidative loss of natural acid freshness.

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.
