The wine's story:

UBE Las Vegas – El Carrascal comes from the 0.70-hectare Las Vegas vineyard in El Carrascal, the pago of Sanlúcar closest to the ocean. The vineyard was planted in 1903 on very pure lentejuelas albariza; in its narrow planting grid of only five feet, very old clones of Listán grow side by side. 1,700 bottles and 60 magnums were made.

Bodegas Ramiro Ibáñez (formerly Cota 45) is the Sanlúcar de Barrameda winery that Ramiro Ibáñez founded in 2012. UBE is short for ubérrima – the name the botanist Simón Roxas Clemente gave to the Listán of Sanlúcar, known elsewhere as Palomino.

Winemaking:

According to the producer, 2022 was a dry year: only 333 litres of rain fell in Sanlúcar, almost 40% below the 25-year average, and ripening was somewhat faster while acidity stayed good. The wine is not fortified and ages in old casks under flor; it was released in October 2025.

Tasting notes:

A full, intense, long-lived white. The producer describes the 2022 wines as full and intense with great ageing capacity, and Las Vegas as a wine of indomitable character.

Food pairing:

Grilled lobster or langoustine – full, saline Listán suits rich shellfish. Cod with butter sauce; mushrooms; aged sheep's cheese.

Ramiro Ibáñez is one of the most important figures in today's Jerez, helping to bring the region's focus back to its vineyards, pagos and albariza soils. A winemaker from Sanlúcar de Barrameda, he combines historical knowledge with an inquisitive approach to show that Palomino can express its origin as clearly as the region's famous fortified wines. His wines come from old vineyards, with minimal intervention and often in used manzanilla casks, where flor is not just a technical detail but part of how the terroir speaks. The result is wines that emphasise salinity, texture, layers and a sense of place rather than power.
