Rueda (DO)
Rueda is a Spanish Denominación de Origen (DO) for wines located in the Community of Castile and León. It comprises 72 municipalities, of which 53 are in the province of Valladolid, 17 are in the north of the province of Segovia, and 2 are in the north of the province of Ávila. It is known primarily for its fine white wines based on the verdejo grape.
History
The first documentary evidence of wine production in this area dates from the 11th century, when King Alfonso VI offered title to lands to settlers in the recently reconquered area. Many individuals and monastic orders accepted the offer and founded monasteries with their own vineyards.
During the 18th century the land planted to vines was greater in extent than it is now and was exclusively under the Verdejo grape variety. The wines produced enjoyed great commercial success in part due to the clarification process used which involved the use of local clay.
In the years between 1890 and 1922 the phylloxera louse destroyed over two thirds of the vines, which were replanted by grafting onto louse resistant New World rootstock. However, the new varieties were selected according to productivity criteria rather than quality ones and for many years the wine produced was sold in bulk.

La Rueda
by: Frankie RuizTu eres la rueda, yo soy el camino
pasas encima de mi dando vueltas
tu rodaras porque ese es tu destino
sin encontrar nadie que te detenga.
Quise pararte pero ibas sin frenos
y tus rodadas me hicieron pedazos
porque no quieres los caminos buenos
y agarras todo lo que hay en tus pasos.
Yo que soñaba, con ser en tu vida
el terminar de tus vueltas al mundo
te vi pasar como nave perdida
de aquí pa'lla sin agarrar tu mundo.
Ninguna rueda me había lastimado
y me pasaron de las más pesadas
pero contigo quede destrozado
porque no hiciste ninguna parada.
Yo que tenia siempre a mi lado
y el día menos pensado
tu te me fuiste de mi lado.
Ninguna mujer a mi me había lastimado
pero contigo yo quede destrozado.
Yo que soñaba con ser en tu vida
el terminar de tus vueltas al mundo
te vi pasar como nave perdida.
Quise pararte pero no me escuchabas
tu te querías ir con el
y de mi lado tu te alejabas.
"oye negrona sigue dando vueltas"Coro:
Pero hay que barbaridad,
y yo sin moverme del mismo lugar.
"verdad que no consigue"
Ahiii...
Yo que a ti te daba todita mi lana
no supiste apreciar
y seguiste con tus rodadas.
Tu eres la rueda yo soy el camino
pasas encima de mi buscando tu destino.
Te vi pasar como nave perdida
de aquí para'lla sin agarrar tu mundo.
Pero ay que barbaridad, oye que barbaridad
