The Sauvignon Blanc variety has found one of the best habitats to express itself within our vineyards in the D.O. Rueda. Here, Sanz Sauvignon 2025 is produced, a single-varietal wine sourced from a selection of the best Sauvignon Blanc vines owned by Vinos Sanz, with an average age of 35 years. It offers a magnificent quality-price ratio and follows in the footsteps of its older sibling: Finca La Colina Sauvignon Blanc (winner of the most prestigious international awards).
Vinos Sanz bases its philosophy on preserving the maximum expression of the vineyard and meticulously caring for the winemaking process. Alongside Verdejo, the queen of the D.O. Rueda, the winery also cultivates Sauvignon Blanc — the second most important variety in the region — across its more than 100 hectares of vineyards, mostly located on Finca La Colina.
Vinos Sanz owns some of the oldest Sauvignon Blanc vineyards in Rueda and boasts extensive experience in crafting this variety.

In addition to being the oldest winery in Rueda, Vinos Sanz is an essential name to understand the enormous development that this Castilian-Leonese denomination has experienced in recent decades. Founded in 1870 in La Seca (Valladolid), it was the first winery to unconditionally bet on verdejo, today considered one of the best white grape varieties in the world. Currently, the winery is managed by the sixth generation of the family and is in the midst of a commercial expansion process to conquer new markets.
Vinos Sanz bases its philosophy on preserving the maximum expression of the vineyard and meticulously caring for the winemaking process. In addition to verdejo, the undisputed queen of Rueda, the winery also cultivates sauvignon blanc – the second most important variety in the area – across its more than 100 hectares of vineyards, mostly located in Finca La Colina. This plot, with unbeatable conditions for grape growing, produces the raw material for two of the best white wines made in this country: Finca La Colina 100 x 100 Verdejo and Finca La Colina Sauvignon Blanc.
