wine description

Fresh apple with buttery peach.

A clear, golden yellow glow with delicate greenish reflections characterizes the appearance of this white wine. The color underlines the youth and freshness, while the brilliance in the glass indicates an elegant and harmonious structure.

Aromas of apple, peach and lemon unfold on the nose, accompanied by nuances of ripe lime. Subtle oak notes, hints of butter and a touch of pepper give the bouquet a fascinating depth and complexity.

The wine is dry and smooth on the palate with a lively acidity. Fruity notes such as green apple and lemon blend with creamy nuances and a hint of toast. The finish is long, fresh and harmonious.

This wine is made from Palomino, Viura and Moscatel de grano menudo, which grow on barren, stony soils in the Sierra de Salamanca. Partial aging in oak barrels gives it depth and structure - a reflection of the authentic Spanish wine tradition.

Vinos La Zorra

In Mogarraz, foxes and hares still say Buenas Noches to each other. In the biosphere reserve, Agustín's vine bushes grow in the untamed wilderness - hidden between wild rosemary and forest.

In 2012, Agustín and his wife Olga founded the La Zorra winery with an attached restaurant - a real family business. Agustín can especially rely on his friend and cellar master Ramiro. The two of them have the same vision with their joint project: they want to preserve the heritage of their homeland and use new, modern techniques to demonstrate the top quality of the old varieties. And in doing so, amaze the whole world. An ambitious goal. They are particularly fond of the old grape variety Rufete, which has adapted perfectly to the wild Sierra de Salamanca since pre-Roman times. Their focus is on quality and therefore on small quantities. On honest and respectful treatment of wild nature and not on the mass production of cheap wine. The wildness in the wine is also reflected in the eponymous vixen, “La Zorra”, who regularly roams through the wild vineyards.
