- Viognier - A very perfumed and rich grape. Can be found as both varietal and as a blend. Viognier produces excellent wines with a long length and balance. The trademark characters are such as violets, peaches, apricots, apples and pears. Bitterness is almost always present with low acidity level.
- Virginia - Grapes have been planted there since the early settlers came to Jamestown in 1607, making the first wine into the new World from indegenous grapes. Thomas Jefferson was given full credit for importing fine French wines to his estate in Monticello. Successful wines are now made in Virginia made from Norton, Touriga, Petit Verdot and Viognier.

Valderrama grows this variety at both plantations, in Cordoba as well as in
Toledo. Here, thanks to Valderrama’s farming technology and the special
climate of these regions, the fruits develop exquisite aromas and fruity flavors later
found in the oils they produce.
At the request of our clients, Valderrama decided to create a unique blend of Extra Virgin Olive Oil. We set aside the olive oil from the first five days of the harvest (Arbequina, Hojiblanca, Picudo and Ocal) and created a unique blend that we call Grand Cru. Only 5000 liters of this special blend have been produced this year.
GRAND CRU
Smelling phase: Remarkably fresh, with a touch
of sweet green grass, nuts and apples, slightly
spicy
Tasting phase: Soft, very thick and elegant with
a light seasoned taste, buttery texture scent that
lingers and continues to develop in the mouth for
a long time
Recommended dishes: Excellent for special
dishes, unique for salad dressings.
