"(100% verdejo, from vines reportedly 80 to 110 years of age) Green-gold color. Smoky lees and minerals underscore fresh apple and melon on the nose. Suave, finely etched pit fruit and honeydew flavors are given creamy depth by lees and sweet butter, picking up anise and herbal qualities with air. Very complex Rueda wine, with assertive citrus and mineral notes adding energy to the long, juicy finish." 92 points - Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Sep/Oct 08 |
