Majuelo del Chiviritero is a single-vineyard Verdejo from Cantalapiedra Viticultores, the family estate of the Cantalapiedra family in La Seca, at the heart of Spain's Rueda country. Heliodoro Cantalapiedra planted the family's first vineyard in 1949, his son Isaac built the holdings up over the following decades, and grandson Manuel began bottling the family's own wines in 2014. The vineyards are certified organic and dry farmed, and the wines are released as Vino de la Tierra de Castilla y León rather than under the Rueda appellation.
The fruit comes from El Chiviritero, a single parcel of a little over one hectare planted in 1981. Unusually for a region where machine harvesting is the norm, the grapes are picked by hand, then destemmed and left to macerate for a day before pressing.
The juice ferments with wild yeasts in used French oak barrels and rests on its lees for around nine months before bottling with only a light filtration. The result is a structured, textural Verdejo with real depth, showing what this variety can do from a single site farmed with care.
