The ‘Cigüeña’ is a gorgeous Spanish wine that will fit the bill for any occasion. With mineral precision floral tones that make this wine as fresh as a daisy. Behind the mineral drive, pineapple and green apple notes give this wine a nice fruit punch along with racy acidity and fine texture.

The Encima winery is located in the mountainous village of Molinaseca, in the region of Bierzo, in the northwest of Spain. Molinaseca is found on the French Way, which is the most popular walking path of El Camino de Santiago! So not only are the roads well trodden, and perhaps a little holy, but they are home to succulent, modern wines. The winery has been producing fantastic wines from local varieties for over 80 years. Some of the vineyards were planted even earlier than that, going back over 100 years! Benito Otero, the grandfather of the current generation in charge, tended these vines, as his grandchildren do now. Like back then, everything is still done by hand and organically. These days, husband and wife Manuel and Merche run the operation, in a similar way to how it was done in the 1940s. With one eye on the future, their children learn the secrets of the grapes and the business. And so the tradition continues...
