Verdejo

The Verdejo grape is a white grape variety originating from Spain, considered the undisputed queen of the Rueda Designation of Origin (D.O.), located mainly in Castilla y León. It is famous for producing young white wines that are highly aromatic, fresh, and with a characteristic bitter finish.

• Aromatic profile: It stands out for its intense notes of white fruits (such as pear and apple), citrus, freshly cut grass, fennel, and subtle tropical touches.
• Palate: It is a wine with good acidity, medium body, and a very elegant and characteristic bitter aftertaste that cleanses the palate.
• Evolution: Although most is consumed as a young wine, it responds excellently to lees aging and barrel aging, gaining unctuousness and complexity.

Tasting notes: It stands out for its high aromatic intensity with nuances of white fruit, citrus, and a characteristic herbal or vegetal background (such as fennel) and a slightly bitter finish.

• Fish and seafood: Ideal with grilled white fish, ceviches, and cooked seafood.
• Rice dishes: Combines perfectly with seafood paella or mild risottos.
• Cheeses and appetizers: Excellent with goat cheese, fresh cheeses, and Mediterranean tapas.
