About Qué Bonito Cacareaba

Qué Bonito Cacareaba is a white wine produced by Bodega Contador in San Vicente de la Sonsierra, D.O.Ca. Rioja.

 

Bodega Contador is the much awaited personal project of Benjamín Romeo, one of the most outstanding Spanish winegrowers. His talent for viticulture was discovered when two consecutive vintages of his garage wine, Contador (2004-2005), achieved 100 Parker points; a true accomplishment. 

With Bodegas Contador, in San Vicente de Sonsierra (La Rioja), Benjamín Romeo wants to give continuity to a unique and personal style, based on attention to every detail of the winemaking process.

Bodega Contador has over fifty plots with different soils, microclimates, orientations, altitudes, varieties and clones, which allow them to achieve wines with great complexity. All the work they carry out in the vineyards is organic, respectful and honest, applying biodynamic guidelines throughout the entire process.

 

Qué Bonito Cacareaba is a wine made from White Grenache, Viura and Malvoisie from their own vineyards, planted between 50 and 70 years ago, in the municipalities of San Vicente de la Sonsierra, Leza and Briones. The average yield per vine is of 1 kilo.

The harvest is performed by hand, placed in 14-kg boxes, and in a maximum time frame of half an hour it is transported to the winery. Once in the winery, they perform a manual selection of bunches, and after destemming, a manual selection of berries. Without crushing, the grapes go through cold maceration for 24 hours, before they are transferred to new 225-litre French oak barrels, where they will ferment at a controlled temperature, 16-18ºC. After 15 days, they are aged for 8 months in the same barrels, with a weekly batonnage. The wine is not stabilised or clarified.

 

Qué Bonito Cacareaba is a creamy, powerful and fresh wine. Elegant on the nose, with aromas of stone fruit, citrus and aromatic herbs that stand out. In the mouth it is voluminous but easy to drink, with a mineral finish that makes it very long lasting. Great integration of the wood.

2023

Qué Bonito Cacareaba 2023 is a white wine that captivates from the outset with its exuberant and voluptuous character. With a rounded and mature body, it presents itself as perfectly balanced, thanks to its vibrant freshness and an acidity that keeps it lively. On the nose, it unveils a blend of white flowers, ripe fruit with citrus hints, and a gentle spicy and smoky nuance, a reflection of its oak aging. A wine that promises a sublime evolution over time in the bottle, revealing its full complexity.
2022

Qué bonito cacareaba 2022 unveils itself as a white wine of distinct character. On the nose, it unfurls nuanced aromas of stone fruit, interwoven with mineral undertones that bestow a distinctive elegance. On the palate, its subtly robust texture is counterbalanced by a lively freshness, leaving an impression of ripeness without forsaking zest. This wine is a true mirror of sophistication and delicacy, perfectly suited for those who value complexity and finesse.
2020 The enchantingly named Qué bonito cacareaba 2020 is a white wine that exudes positive energy, befitting its moniker. On the nose, it presents itself with an honesty reminiscent of a meadow blossoming in the early days of spring, where ripe and citrus fruits intertwine in an embrace, further embellished by delicate patisserie notes that herald a creamier palate without overwhelming the senses. This white wine is fresh, persistent, and imbued with elegance.
