About the producer:
Atlántida is a project by Bodegas Luis Pérez, created to highlight the revival of historic vineyard sites along the Cádiz coast. The winery focuses on expressing the Atlantic influence and unique albariza soils of the region through precise, terroir-driven wines.
About the region:
Produced in the province of Cádiz, near Jerez, this coastal area is shaped by strong Atlantic winds and bright southern sunlight. The renowned albariza soils — chalky, limestone-rich soils — retain moisture and contribute freshness and minerality, even in warm conditions.
About the grape variety:
Primarily made from Vijiriega (also known locally as Vijariego Blanco), an old Andalusian variety valued for its aromatic intensity, natural acidity, and saline character.
Style and tasting note:
Atlántida Cádiz Blanco 2022 is fresh and expressive, with aromas of citrus peel, green apple, white flowers, and subtle saline notes. The palate is vibrant and textured, showing bright acidity, mineral depth, and a long, coastal-influenced finish.
Trivia:
The name “Atlántida” pays tribute to the Atlantic Ocean, whose cooling breezes and maritime influence are essential to the wine’s freshness and distinctive character."
