About the Wine
Wildly delicious sparkling red made from Romé grapes- a grape variety native to and grown almost exclusively in Málaga. Samuel is passionate about using indigenous grape varieties, some of which are so rarely seen these days that they are at risk of completely disappearing. Samuel works on a number of tiny plots of land at various elevations and embraces each individual terroir and does not mix musts from different vineyards, believing strongly that each individual plot possesses its own unique identity. The wines are often labelled using numbers which correspond to the altitude of the plots.
‘1043’ is made Ancestral style, or pet-nat. The grapes are given 10 days skin contact before completing fermentation in bottle. The resulting wine has a wild edge, it bursts with red cherries and pepper, with an edge of volatility to the acid – compelling, full of energy and just a little bit wild!
About Bodega Viñeron
A young Samuel Párraga began Bodega Viñeron in 2018, producing wines of utmost purity which express the incredible terroirs of his native Málaga and neighbouring Granada. A breathtakingly beautiful region where the pristine Mediterranean coast gives way to dramatic steep terraced slopes which have been cultivated for centuries with vines, almonds, olives, citrus and now avocados. The region has a deep winemaking history since Roman times and although the Atlantic side of Andalucía has mammothed it in terms of international fame in the wine world, the hills and mountains of Málaga and Granada share similar winemaking traditions. The difference in terrain and climate however is often worlds apart. A humid Mediterranean climate quickly gives way with altitude to more mountainous terrain with a mix of slate, clay, limestone and sand with refreshingly cool evenings as some of Samuel’s vines grow as high as 1300m above sea level.
As well as following the Andalucían traditions of beautiful oxidative whites and dessert wines Samuel also makes exceptionally balanced and bright sparkling and dry wines. He focuses on indigenous varieties such as Moscatel, Macabeo, Pedro Ximénez, Rome, Montua, Calona, and Vigiriego as well as Tempranillo and Petit Verdiot. Farming his fruit with the utmost care and respect for nature and her inherent balance. His winemaking in cellar is light handed and pure. All Samuel’s wines are fermented spontaneously and he has never added any sulphur to his wines. They are exceptionally unique and delicious wines which not only reflect this region but the talent of a young and talented winemaker.
