Located in the Ribera Del Duero, in the heart of Northern Spain, Bodegas Valderiz is a family-owned winery that has been producing world-class wines for over 25 years. With 60 hectares of vineyards spread across a wide variety of soils, the Esteban family has perfected the art of winemaking in the region's extreme climate.

In Northern Spain, Bodegas Valderiz has been leading the way in terms of organic practices. The family has renounced the use of herbicides, fertilizers, and pesticides, relying exclusively on natural yeasts that come from the grape itself. The result is a portfolio of complex wines that reflect the pure, sun-scorched character of Ribera Del Duero. With a dedication to quality and a passion for sustainability, Bodegas Valderiz is a name that wine enthusiasts should not miss.

Tomás Esteban is the vinous equivalent of a warm hug. It exhibits a rich plummy, nose, redolent of blackberry, cassis and red berries, with oaky undertones. It combines a formidable tannic structure with fresh, aggressive acidity. An earthy, meaty quality joins on the palate, as the wine blossoms into a warming, comforting drinking experience, enveloping the tongue in dark fruits, leather and cigar smoke. The finish lingers on the palate for some time. Consider pairing this wine with traditional Spanish meat dishes such as albondigas, or rich mushroom risotto.
