By Alberto Dorado: the essence of a legacy
De Alberto Dorado is one of Rueda's oenological gems, produced using an artisanal process that combines ageing in demijohns exposed to the sun and subsequent maturation in oak barrels. This traditional technique allows for a wine with a unique complexity, combining notes of nuts, spices and a perfect balance between acidity and volume in the mouth.
The inclusion of De Alberto Dorado in the list of the best wines of Rueda highlights the value of the DO's special wines and the importance of keeping the region's winemaking heritage alive. This recognition reinforces Bodegas De Alberto's commitment to excellence, tradition and authenticity.
Commitment to quality and tradition
Bodegas De Alberto, with more than 350 years of history in Serrada, continues to be a benchmark in the production of high-quality wines. Its family legacy and respect for ancestral techniques have positioned the winery as one of the most outstanding in the production of wines that combine tradition and modernity.
With this new recognition, Bodegas De Alberto reaffirms its role as ambassador of the great wines of Rueda and continues its work of offering the world wines with character, history and authenticity.
