WINES THAT CONNECT WITH PEOPLE
Wines that tell stories, express feelings, let the energy from the earth and Nature be expressed through the grapes and tune in with that idea that wants to transmit.
Celler Cataruz emerges as a personnal project managed by its owner Coqué Ruz. After working for several years as sommelier and stablish her own wine restaurant was proposed as partner in her first winery in Venta del Moro. That project was her baptism in the manufacturing but, despite the fact that it provided her with the knowledge and the experience that she appreciated, it hadn´t allowed her to express and become herself through what they were producing. So, as soon as the opportunity appeared she decided to get free and started as wine producer by herself. She counted with her previous oenologist who guided and introduced her in such hermetic segment. And there, in the heart of his winery located in Casas del Rey, he gave her the space to produce her owns wines.
· Coque Ruz doesn`t produced wine with the grapes she has, as the most of wine makers do. She looks for the varieties that better express what she wants to tell and these are the ones she cultivates.
· Her wines tell stories, express feelings, let the energy from the earth and the nature expresses through the grapes and tunes in with that idea that she wants to transmit .
· Her ingredients are land, sea, wind, rain, Sun ...and all this, plus the grape's genetic, serves to produce her wines.
· There is no element abandoned to random. There is always a reason. Everything has to be relationed with this message, the wine's soul.
· Respecting this philosophy letting the nature do its work.
· The biggest effort and satisfaction is in conflucting tradition and wine growers' knowledge who own the selected vineyards with the oenologist's and hers's current vision and the enthusiasm .

Long ended tipical in this variety.
More than wines , Coque prefers to speak about terroirs. And that`s because to produce any wine she has to look for the confluence of manny factors: Sun, land, wind, rain, ...sea. So in her wines it is possible to distiguesh two different personalities well defined: Mediterranean for the white wines, and Atlanthic for the reds ones.
The white ones look for the salinity from the earth that in other age was covered by sea. This mixture of Sun, mediterranean breeze and iodine, is food for the grapes and provides them the joy that identifies these wines.
The red wines are cultivated in Hoces del Cabriel making border between the mediaterranean and La Mancha . These vineyards breaths the freshness from to be at 600 mts of high, with a weather that enjoys the rains . This fact plus the age of them, that moves between 50-70 years old, gives to the wines an special minerality that makes our imagination flighs to cooler lands in the North.
Each variety marks its genetic. Viognier that has been magnificantly aclimated to this region and covers with surprises the expression and evolution of the two white wines. Sauvinon Blanc, that has been cultivated in a shady area at 300 mts of high, highlights because the salinity that has absorved from the land.
Referring to the red grapes cultivated in Utiel, points out three of them. Garnacha Tintorera, explosion of red fruit and flowers. It is cultivted in both sides of Cabriel river what gives to the wine a mineral accent. The Shiraz grows near the Terrerazo and appears in the wine Maneras de Vivir with all it splendeur.
The Bobal is at 800 mts of high, with full body and expression is mature but with the fresness of an atlantic climate more than mediterranean. The stony ground creates underground aquiefers forcing the depth for the roots and giving complexidy to the wines.
Our first steps were in Casas del Rey, but the development and sanity led us to move to the other axis of our land. Currently all the elaboration is carried out in Enguera, guaranteeing the best conditions for the entire process.
