Valdespino is a historic sherry house in Jerez and owner of the Macharnudo vineyard. Macharnudo Alto is its highest part, at 135 metres above sea level, planted on albariza soils, a white chalky limestone. This is 100% Palomino Fino vinified unfortified as a dry table white under IGP Cádiz.

Night harvest preserves freshness and natural acidity in the Andalusian heat. Fermentation takes place in ex-sherry barrels, followed by six months on fine lees for creaminess and breadth.

Identificación
El vino es una elaboración de la bodega Valdespino, datada en la añada 2024. Se enmarca bajo la denominación IGP Cádiz, situada en la región de Andalucía (España). Al no estar encabezado, se comercializa como blanco tranquilo bajo esta IGP y no como jerez.

Procedencia y Elaboración
La uva Palomino fino procede de la parcela Macharnudo Alto, la cota más elevada del pago Macharnudo, a 135 metros sobre el nivel del mar. El suelo es de albariza, una caliza blanca con alta concentración de carbonato cálcico.

La vendimia se realiza de noche para preservar la frescura y la acidez natural frente al calor andaluz. La uva, 100% Palomino Fino, se vinifica sin encabezar, liberándose así del destino habitual del jerez. La fermentación tiene lugar en barricas ex-jerez, aportando una sutil complejidad, y el vino reposa seis meses sobre lías finas, lo que contribuye a una textura cremosa y amplitud en boca.

Learn more about Valdespino

Valdespino traces its origin to 1264, when tradition holds that a knight of that name, one of the twenty-four who rode with Alfonso X at the taking of Jerez, received land as a reward. Its earliest documented records date from the fourteenth century. Since 1999 it has belonged to the Estévez family, who put Eduardo Ojeda in charge of the winemaking.

Its vineyard is Macharnudo, one of the great albariza sites of Jerez, and its highest part, Macharnudo Alto, gives its best-known wines.

Fino Inocente comes from that vineyard and breaks the rule: it ferments in cask and its solera has ten criaderas, where a fino usually has three.

Viña Macharnudo Alto is Palomino Fino from that same height, at 135 metres, made as an unfortified white under IGP Cádiz: night harvest, fermentation in former sherry casks and six months on fine lees.
