The wine

The hidden elegance of the Sierra de Salamanca. A red wine that recovers one of the most distinctive varieties of Spanish viticulture and expresses it with freshness, subtlety and a personality that is hard to forget.

The Raíces collection was created with the aim of highlighting some of Spain’s most interesting native varieties. On this occasion, the protagonist is Rufete, a historic grape from the D.O. Sierra de Salamanca whose century-old vineyards survive in small plots scattered across the mountains of the western Iberian Peninsula.

Made by winemaker Rubén Magallanes, this wine seeks to reveal the most authentic character of a little-known variety, capable of producing delicate, fresh reds full of nuances, far removed from the usual power of other warmer Spanish regions.

Raíces Ibéricas - Master Winemakers

Master Winemakers was founded by Mark Schiettekat in 2000 from the, at the time, a novel idea of making wines tailored to consumers' wishes to control all aspects of the wine, from grape varieties to the final product, including design and pre-set pricing, in consultation with customers; to work with indigenous grape varieties in their terroirs of origin; and not to exclude the most peculiar blends, even if they don't follow the rules, because creativity should never be truncated....
