Tasting Notes

This Rueda Verdejo opens with exuberant citrus, Bosc pear, nectarine, peach, orange blossom, lemon-lime, fennel, vanilla bean, and subtle floral notes. The palate is fresh, sleek, and textured, balancing refreshing acidity with sur-lie complexity, lemon zest, honeydew melon, toasted pineapple, and a vibrant lingering finish.

Food Paring

Pair this old-vine Verdejo with grilled seafood, shellfish, roasted chicken, goat cheese, or herb-driven vegetable dishes to highlight its bright citrus and floral lift. Its creamy lees texture and crisp finish also make it a polished aperitif or a versatile match for tapas, paella, and lighter Spanish-inspired plates.

Professional Reviews

"Aromas of lemon-lime, peach and orange blossom pave the way for flavors of lemon tart, toasted pineapple, fennel pollen, vanilla bean and rose petal. Notes of anise and orange zest endure on the taste buds."

90 James Suckling

"Intense white almond and fennel characters to the apple and tarragon notes. This is fresh, sleek and textured in the center palate with a creamy mouthfeel and a crisp finish. Drink now"

Region Information

Rueda is a Spanish wine region best known for fresh, aromatic white wines made from the Verdejo grape. Located on the high plains of Castilla y León, Rueda benefits from a continental climate with cool nights that preserve acidity and aromatics. Wines from Rueda are valued for their crisp texture, citrus and herbal notes, and clean, refreshing finish.

Spain has the largest vineyard area in the world and a winemaking history that spans thousands of years. It is known for regions such as Rioja, Ribera del Duero, and Priorat, which produce distinctive red wines. Spain is also famous for fortified wines like Sherry and sparkling Cava. Modern investments and techniques have elevated quality while preserving regional identity.
