Cape Cru - a tasting of unique wines
Carlos started his estate in 1998 at the age of 25, but long before that he had been involved with wine, the land around Laguardia and the tradition of winemaking. As a young boy he helped his father in the vineyards and here lies the foundation of his philosophy. Carlos has a strong focus on the vineyards he has and the vines planted on them. This, he believes, is where the foundation of his wines lies.

Spain is seen as the sleeping giant in the wine world. It is of course a very large country where many different styles of wine are made in different wine regions from north to south and from east to west. From the sherries of the south, the sparkling wines of the Penedes and the powerful red wines of Rioja and Ribera del Duero.
The most important grape variety for Spanish red wine is Tempranillo. A grape variety that has several synonyms in the country is called the grape tinto del païs in Ribera del Duero, tinto fino in the Penedes and cencibel in the La Mancha wine region. But of course there are also other grapes and especially in rapidly emerging wine regions such as Bierzo where mencia is the main grape, Priorat with grenache and carignan or Valencia with its autochthonous varieties such as monastrell, forcalla, arco and bonicaire. Wine country Spain offers an enormous amount of choice and diversity.
In Spain, verdejo is of course an important grape variety for white wines and especially for the white wines from the Rueda wine region. More in the northeast in the wine region of Galicia, where designations of origin such as Rias Baixas, Valdeorras and Monterrei can be found, albarino and godello are the most important grapes. In the east in Priorat, on the other hand, more "French" grape varieties such as grenache blanc and macabeu. So diversity everywhere.
In addition to the still wines, Spain is of course known for the sparkling wines made in the northeast of the country around Barcelona. Here in Penedes, xarel.lo, macabeo and parellada form the basis of sparkling wines made with a second fermentation in the bottle. We offer you Lacrima Baccus Cavas, certified organic cavas that are perfect as an aperitif or as an accompaniment to a classic Spanish paella.
