Perhaps the finest bodega in Rueda. Perhaps even in all of Spain. José Pariente's wines are the epitome of winemaking: perseverance, tireless dedication, and pure craftsmanship. These three principles have ensured that José Pariente's wines are more popular today than ever before. They have established a standard in Rueda: a standard that other wineries still envy.
The wines from the Rueda of José Pariente
The winery was founded by José Pariente. He came to Rueda in the 1960s and saw the area's potential. At that time, Rueda had little to offer in terms of wines. It was pioneers like José Pariente who ensured that so much wine is produced here today. He planted several native vines, namely Verdejo. By paying close attention to the vines, the harvests were magnificent. Thanks in part to José Pariente's wines, Rueda has had an official quality label from the Spanish government since 1980.
José Pariente wines
Today, the company is led by José Pariente's daughter, Victoria Pariente. From the moment she took charge, the company expanded dramatically. She invested in the winery and, as a result, created a wide range of wines. She has embraced her pioneering role within the Rueda region with gusto. José Pariente's wines are primarily exported, with the Netherlands being a key partner. No other country in the world consumes as much Rueda Verdejo wine as the Netherlands.
The Verdejo wines of José Pariente
Victoria Pariente now offers a very wide range of wines. However, they maintain the tradition of Verdejo grapes. Consider the classic José Pariente Verdejo Rueda, an elegant white wine that combines fruitiness and freshness. Or how about the oak-aged José Pariente Verdejo Fermentado Barrica? Besides Verdejo, José Pariente also produces delicious white wines from Viognier and Sauvignon Blanc, and they currently also produce highly successful red wines from Rueda.
The best wine from José Pariente
An impossible question, if you ask us. Every year, we're fortunate enough to taste the entire José Pariente range. Each year, the wines seem to get better and better. More elegant, more refined, and more flavorful. If we really had to choose, we'd go with the José Pariente Verdejo Cuvée Especial. A top-tier Verdejo. The Apasionado de José Pariente Sweet Dulce, an exquisite dessert wine made from the refreshing Sauvignon Blanc grape, is particularly noteworthy.
