A lees aged Verdejo with notes of pear, melon and blossom
- Verdejo is a white grape that has been in Spain, specifically in the Rueda, for more than 1,000 years.
- From La Seca, which is a vineyard situated in the heart of the DO Rueda.
- The wine is made by three brothers, known as the 'three pillars' of the winery, who are all passionate about Rueda and the expression of the region.
- This wine is from 25 year-old vines, which provides great concentration in the wine.

Fresh yet concentrated, this wonderful example of Verdejo has limey-peary fruit and lovely body thanks to 9 months of lees aging. I enjoyed it with a tray bake of hake, potato and thinly-sliced lime. Any seafood, or even pork, would be great. - Manda Joyce, OWC
