The best wines from Rueda in Spain

Rueda is located slightly west of Madrid, towards the border with Portugal. It is a district in the Castilla y León region. But unlike elsewhere in Castilla y León, almost only white wine is made in Rueda. Not only Verdejo. Sauvignon Blanc also does very well in Rueda.

Rueda is located slightly west of Madrid, towards the border with Portugal. It is a district in the Castilla y León region. But unlike the other DOs of Castilla y León, Rueda produces almost exclusively white wine.

Not only Verdejo. Sauvignon Blanc also does very well in Rueda. A maximum of 25% Sauvignon may be added to a DO Rueda Verdejo. No one should have a problem with that because the Sauvignon makes the Verdejo juice even more lively.
