Jesus, the owner and winemaker of Recuero, champions a selection of rare grape varieties that are local to their region in Toledo in Central Spain. This bold and delicious white wine is made from 100% Airen del Paid; a nearly extinct variety from an old plot of over 100 years(!). Under Jesus's capable hands the result is fantastic - mildly aromatic with a fresh palate and good depth of flavour. Extremely drinkable. Pairs well with goats cheese or baked seabass.
Bodega Recuero, producing wine since 1873, is owned and run by Jesus Recuero who inherited the winery (bodega) from his ancestors along with a great passion for their vineyards in Villanueva De Alcardate, close to Toledo in Castilla La Mancha. Jesus, a trained agricultural engineer and oenologist, greatly cherish the knowledge and winemaking traditions that accumulated through the years and passed down to him by his father and grandfather. Guzqia, the vineyard in Alcardate, along with another vineyard in Extremadura contain age-old vines of endemic grape varieties; some of whom almost completely forgotten, such as Moravia, Airen del Pais, Verdoncho, Albillo Pardo, Pinuelo (a strain of Granache), Verdejo Serrena (Rufeta Blanca), Palomino and a few others. The wines are purely and carefully elaborated to create truly magnificent results. We are very happy to be able to bring these wines to the UK and hope you try them.
