Berkmann Spanish portfolio at Wine +

On Thursday, 17th January at 11.30am on the Berkmann stand, Fernando Chivite, winemaker at Bodegas Julin Chivite will be presenting back vintages of the award winning Coleccin 125 range of Blanco, Reserva and Vendimia Tarda to visitors (please contact Bridget French to confirm attendance). The Coleccin range is produced in limited quantities at Chivite's single estate Bodegas Seoro de Arnzano in Tierra Estella, Navarra, which has just received the prestigious denomination of Vino de Pago, one of only five properties in all of Spain to receive this classification.

Further wines that will be available to taste from Berkmann Wine Cellars' portfolio include: single vineyard Finca Valpiedra (DOCa Rioja), Finca Antigua Reserva (DO La Mancha), joven and Reservas from Bodegas Valdemar (DOCa Rioja), Juan Rojo from ungrafted old vines at Bodegas Matarredonda (up and coming appellation, Toro), Rudeles (DO Ribera del Duero) and a deliciously crisp Verdejo from Condesa Eylo (DO Rueda).
