Torre Nava Verdejo Ruedo DOC

Wine information: Bodegas Velasco Ballesteros has recently been established by a family of local vinegrowers who historically had always only sold their grapes to local wineries in the Rueda Denomination but have now decided to produce and bottle their own top quality wine. The only wine they produce from highly selected grapes from their own vineyards is the Torre Nava Verdejo. Verdejo, an indigenous variety to the region since the 11th century, has flavours that are reminiscent of mountain herbs and fruital notes that have a slight sensation of sweetness because of the grape’s glycerine and alcohol components which balance its excellent acidity. The quality of the wine begins with the very careful selection of the vines from which the grapes are collected. Careful harvesting at night ensures the freshness of the grapes. Bodegas Velasco Ballesteros is equipped with the most advanced methods of elaboration but also respects the traditional principles of vinification. Very bright, golden colour with a slight greenish tint. Wonderful, fragrant aromas of lime, salty minerals, honeysuckle and herbs, gooseberry with hints of pineapple. Delightfully fresh, very clean, spicy citrus, green apple flavours, broaden on the palate with cutting acidity, lingering into a lengthy, refreshing crisp finish. Structured and elegant, a really classy Verdejo.
