Indeed, the winegrowing sector is
the largest employer in the
district.
The municipal district of La Seca, located in the heart of
Rueda, has a longstanding tradition in winegrowing and in the
production of quality wines.
Almost all its inhabitants work in the winegrowing sector,
either in vineyards or in the production of wine, as well as in
indirect employment such as transport and advisory services.

• The planted area of our vineyards is approximately 20 hectares,
complemented with old vineyards under the technical care and
control of Tera y Castro.
• The stony landscape naturally insulates and protects the roots of
the vine and is the ideal habitat for the best selected varieties of
the indigenous Verdejo grape, present in the area since the year
1000.

• Both the slightly undulated topography of the terrain
and the continental climate, with its varied
temperatures, help vine growing in order to obtain
balanced wines with ideal levels of sugar and acidity.

• The land is ideal for the Verdejo and other white grape
varieties.
Denomination of Origin Rueda
• The first Denomination of Origin to be
approved in the Region of Castilla y
León, D.O. Rueda was created for the
acknowledgement and protection of its
autochthonous variety, the Verdejo
grape.
• Sauvignon Blanc, Viura, and Palomino
Fino are other varieties of grape grown
in this appellation, while Verdejo is the
dominant variety.
• D.O. Rueda is recognized internationally
for its renowned white wines.

• The Verdejo grape
• Has been grown in Rueda for centuries,
dating back as early as the 11th century,
and is the reigning varietal of the Rueda
appellation
• Its flavor is characterized as herbaceous
and fruity with an excellent level of
acidity and a bitter touch that gives this
grape a unique personality.
• Verdejo wines are vibrant, well-
balanced and of exquisite quality.
