About Primitivo Collantes Socaire Blanco Oxidativo de Albariza

Young, indeed. But do not be deceived by its age. For when one converses with Primitivo Collantes, one engages with someone who has the Marco de Jerez deeply ingrained in both mind and blood.

His story does not commence with him. It begins in the late 19th century when the brothers Primitivo and Tomás Collantes Lloredo journeyed from Cantabria to Chiclana in search of more than just sunshine. And they found it amidst vineyards, Atlantic breezes, and white soils that resemble dust but are pure viticultural gold: albariza.

More than a century later, the winery remains. And now he has taken the helm. And that, though it may not seem so, is a weighty responsibility. For you are not merely crafting wine. You are upholding a family name, a philosophy of viticulture, and a narrative that has been unfolding for over 110 years. And Primitivo does so with ease. Without pretence. With that blend of respect and curiosity possessed by those who understand that tradition is not a museum, but a tool.

If there is a wine that encapsulates all of this, it is Socaire Blanco Oxidativo de Albariza. The grapes hail from Finca Matalián in Chiclana, mere kilometres from the Atlantic. Vineyards on albariza—that legendary soil that retains moisture like a natural sponge, enabling the vine to endure the arid summers. A soil that imparts a saline and mineral imprint upon the wine that is difficult to replicate.

The variety is palomino fino, the same that breathes life into the great wines of Jerez. Yet here, the path diverges. Fermentation occurs in American oak casks that once held fino. No flor yeast. Filled to the brim to allow oxygen to perform its role. And then patience. A lengthy maturation, the likes of which are seldom seen, potentially extending up to 60 months in wood, vat, and bottle.

Primitivo Collantes Socaire Blanco Oxidativo de Albariza, as its name suggests, is a white wine that does not merely aspire to be youthful and fresh. It is a wine with purpose, with deliberation, and with memory. A wine that allows time and albariza to weave their magic.
