Great aromas from this Spanish Verdejo of white flowers, citrus, honey and a little almond. On the palate fresh, full flavoured and delicious with ripe Apple notes. Love these textural European whites. Apparently 40 year old Verdejo vines grown at 750 metre altitude. Good to see a screw cap on this Spanish white.

Have been drinking this wine for years and it never disappoints. Acid, texture, line and length spot on. Big slurps!

I found this 12 year old Spanish white wine by chance at a local store. The store worker had no idea about this brand. It was fun to taste. First off the color was a very dark hue of gold. The nose was the most interesting thing about it. Cooked down peach with honey and lavender. There was a touch of minerality in the background. The palate brought back memories of that Bit-O-Honey taffy candy without the sweetness. Good balance with acidity, alcohol. Finished totally dry. Fun find

Another delicious Iberian White, this one from Spain and made by the highly reputable Telmo Rodriguez. Produced from 40 year old Verdejo vines. Aromatic with floral notes and pineapple juice. On the palate textural with rich nutty flavours and notes of tropical fruit salad. Drink now. Great to see a screw cap.
