Full of ripe red fruit, cherry jam, ripe black fruit, a hint of pepper, some licorice, but also spicy elements. A touch of tobacco and vanilla. The Contreras Ruiz Vallehondo has structure and delicious ripe tannins. Aged in French oak for 6 months and bottle aging for 6 months before the wine leaves the cellars. Fresh, young, powerful, a characterful wine that lingers for a long time. A wine that pairs fantastically with homemade grilled dishes. A wonderful combination is the Contreras Ruiz Vallehondo with a picanha steak with chimichurri. And what about an Iberico pork chop! A top combination!
Contreras Ruiz is a family business in the province of Huelva. The vineyards are situated on slopes between Doñana National Park and the Atlantic Ocean; both have a positive influence on the vineyards, and both are visible from the fields. The origins of the family bodega date back to the beginning of the nineteenth century. Many of the techniques have changed today, but respect for the vineyard and for every bunch of grapes has remained the same. In recent years, they have converted a significant portion of their vineyards to organic viticulture. The winemaker is José Joaquín Contreras.
Next to the Donana National Park, an area of pristine natural beauty, Bodegas Contreras Ruiz champions the rich, full-bodied Zalema grape.
Located in the deep south of Spain, on the Atlantic coast close to Portugal, this is the perfect location to cultivate this local variety organically. Their goal is to produce complex wines, in which this single grape variety expresses itself in different ways, depending on the location and the soil.
