Lees-aged, high-altitude Verdejo
Lees-aged, high-altitude Verdejo. Citrus, green apple, pear, fennel and white flowers; crisp but silky, with mineral lift and Verdejo's subtle bitter finish.
Single vineyard at about 790m
Certified-organic vineyard
100% Verdejo
stainless-steel fermentation and six months on fine lees.
Grilled fish, prawns, asparagus or goat's cheese.
Altitude and lees ageing give this Verdejo both freshness and texture, avoiding the thin, purely aromatic style of many entry-level examples.
