Description
In a nutshell:
A complex, vibrant Spanish white from the Castilian wine region of Rueda
The lowdown:
Until the discovery that the local Verdejo grape could make excellent wine in this part of Castilla y León between Madrid and León Rueda wasn't considered a serious wine region. That's long since changed and their whites, and a few reds, are now firmly on the map. In this wine the grapes are sourced from old bush vines planted on gravelly soils and are night harvested to ensure they're cool upon reaching the winery. After fermentation it's kept on its lees for 4 months to yeild a wine with intense aromas of stone fruit, tangerine oil and citrus. It has a rounded and complex palate, with peach and apricot fruit and notes of grass and fennel which leads to bright and lengthy finish.
The Producer:
Formed in 2010, Diez Siglos is a collective of around 70 small to medium growers who are working together to continue the winemaking traditions of Rueda. They use their combined expertise, their best vineyards, and a new winery with the latest technology to produce great wines typical of the region. Thw Verdejo grape is at the heart of what they do and their wines are structured and bright with fruit at the fore. The collective already farms in an organic manner is working toward obtaining certification for all its vineyards over the coming years.
When to drink:
A very good value wine that's great to drink by itself and is also good with fish, chicken and rice based dishes.
Suitable for Vegans
