Buy Wine from Valdespino

To speak of Valdespino is to speak of more than seven centuries of history at the service of wine. of history at the service of wine. Founded in 1264, this Jerez-based winery is one of the oldest in Andalusia, and possibly in Poundpe, with uninterrupted winemaking activity. Its emblem is not fashion, but radical fidelity to its origins: to the vineyards, to biological ageing, to the veil of flor, to time.

Located in the heart of Jerez de la Frontera, Valdespino has kept its winemaking model practically intact: musts fermenting in butts, without stainless steel or modern interventions, and a system of criaderas and soleras that sculpts the soul of each wine with almost monastic patience. Here we don't bottle styles, we bottle stories.

Eduardo Ojeda's legacy

The architect behind Valdespino' s recent renaissance is Eduardo Ojeda. A classically trained winemaker with a contemporary sensibility, Ojeda has been the key figure in recovering the house's international prestige since joining the Estévez Group in the 2000s. His philosophy is clear: Jerez comes from the vineyard, not from the ageing system. For this reason, Valdespino continues to vinify by vineyard, with jewels such as the Pago Macharnudo Alto, one of the purest and most luminous albariza soils in the region.

Wines that tell stories: Inocente, Cardenal and Moscatel Toneles

Under his tutelage, wines such as Inocente... (the only traditional fino fermented in cask and with 10 criaderas) or the majestic Cardenal (an old palo cortado that is over 60 years old) have become cult wines. But perhaps no wine has reached the almost mystical aura of Moscatel Toneles : a natural sweet wine that has spent more than a century in static ageing, in a forgotten cask and rescued by Ojeda. With only a few bottles bottled, Moscatel Toneles is one of the most awarded wines in the world, 100 Parker points several times, and its intensity, balance and complexity are simply unequalled. Notes of incense, woodwork, candied orange and roasted coffee emerge with a density that defies time.

Vines, varieties and ageing without concessions

Valdespino works primarily with Palomino Fino, although it also retains treasures of Pedro Ximénez and Moscatel, all with a focus on prolonged ageing, without concessions to the easy or the immediate. These are not fashionable wines: they are wines of memory. In times of immediacy, Valdespino reminds us... that there are pleasures that only come when one learns to wait
