Bodega Javier Sanz Viticultor

About

Javier Sanz Viticultor is a winery in the heart of the Valladolid province in the town of La Seca (Rueda D.O., Castile and León, Spain) and specialises in the creation of quality, signature wines.

Its aim is to offer unique, personal wines using painstaking work methods both in the field and the wine-making process. This involves recovering nearly extinct varieties, taking good care of the old vineyards to preserve the origins of the winery and carrying out selected production processes.

Javier Sanz Viticultor owns 104 hectares of vineyards, thus we take care of the development of the vines and monitor them. The average yield is 7,500 kg/ha and we produce about 700,000 bottles per year.

Our wines are present in Europe, United States, Canada, South America, China, Japan and other parts of the world.

A WINE-MAKING TRADITION

The story of Javier Sanz Viticultor began in the mid-19th century with the great-grandfather of the current company director, from whom vineyards dating back to 1863 were inherited.

From that time until today, five generations have perpetuated a special relationship – based on tradition and excellence – between grower and vine.

OUR GRAPE VARIETIES

Our star variety is Verdejo, native to Rueda, to which Javier Sanz Viticultor has added other varieties following in-depth research, restoring of abandoned varieties and the planting of non-conventional ones.

Over the past twelve years, Javier Sanz has worked on the recovery of abandoned varieties; this is the case of Verdejo Malcorta, a clone which has been recovered for its intense floral aromas and its higher level of acidity over the conventional Verdejo.

After carrying out tests and studies, he discovered the great potential of varietals such as Grasă de Cotnari (from Romania) and Colorado (an unknown red wine strain found in our vineyards)
