Bodegas Alvarez y Diez is a wonderful and ambitious winery based out of Nava del Ray in Rueda. In 1941, Alvarez Romero and Eladio Diez Ossorio began this family estate, which is now known as one of the oldest bodegas in all of Rueda with decades of winemaking and grape growing. Now, the winery creates a wonderful line-up of Rueda's famous white grapes. Enrique Juan de Benito and his sons have taken what has always been and created an estate of modern and advanced equipment, mixed with earth conscious practices for their family's estate wines. In more recent years, the winery has stretched its wine making (in the Bodegas Aldial name) out to surrounding vineyards that sit outside of the Rueda D.O. The Lanzos line is an incredible value due to these efforts of producing delicious demarcated wine.
lanzos blanco
100% verdejo
Lanzos Blanco is not only remarkably fresh and delicious, but it is a great example of the incredible value coming from the Castilla y Leon region of Spain. Coming from the estates younger vines (and all still located in Rueda DO), this is 100% Verdejo that was fermented in stainless steel tanks to exhibit crisp ripe fruit and a touch of floral aromas. On the palate, it is fresh and full of fruit, and even has an underlying tone of minerality. A very refreshing wine that pairs well with a wide variety of seafood, fowl, and full-flavored cheeses.
