Bodegas Arraez
Bodegas Arraez operates in Valencia, Spain's eastern wine region, where Mediterranean warmth and coastal influence shape distinctive white wines. The winery's portfolio centers on indigenous and regional varieties: Malvasia and Verdil anchor their Los Arráez line, grapes that thrive in Valencia's climate and express the region's character. Los Arráez Arcos, Los Arráez Malvasia, and Los Arráez Verdil form the core range, each rated 88 points by Wine Advocate. These whites reflect Valencia's tradition of aromatic, mineral-driven expression—Malvasia bringing richness and complexity, Verdil offering crisp, herbaceous notes. The winery's focus on these varieties positions it within Valencia's contemporary wine identity, where producers increasingly highlight local grapes alongside more familiar international plantings.
