Cornucopia 2024 is one of the most personal wines from Manuel Cantalapiedra , the new generation of a winemaking family from La Seca (Valladolid), in the historic heart of Verdejo country . Together with his father, Isaac, Manuel stopped selling grapes to produce his own wines. They do so with a clear philosophy: minimal intervention and maximum expression of the vineyard.
Verdejo is the star of the show, and here it presents a very different face from the commercial white wines of the region. No tropical aromas or mass-produced wines here: Cornucopia is an authentic Verdejo, vibrant and full of character . It comes from old vines cultivated organically , on stony soils with a limestone subsoil that imparts freshness and salinity .
A natural, sincere and energetic white wine that celebrates the Verdejo from the vineyard.

The grapes come from family vineyards in La Seca , cultivated using organic viticulture and biodynamic practices . The harvest is done by hand .
The wine ferments spontaneously with native yeasts and is made with minimal intervention. It is bottled unfiltered and without added sulfites , to best preserve the purity of the Verdejo grape and the character of the vineyard.
A very versatile white wine on the table , ideal with fresh fish and seafood , salads and crunchy vegetables , strong cheeses , rice dishes and mild stews .
It’s also a great companion for appetizers and casual market cuisine .
We love it because it brings back the real Verdejo : the vineyard wine, the family wine, the wine that was made before designer whites. Manuel Cantalapiedra works with absolute respect for the vines , and that’s evident in every glass.
We love its freshness , its energy , and that saline finish that makes you want to keep drinking. It’s ideal for those looking for natural wines with purpose and for those who want to discover that Verdejo can be so much more than they imagine.
