Flor de Vetus Verdejo

  • £16.50

Sometimes described as Spain’s answer to Sauvignon Blanc, Verdejo has similar aromatics – passion fruit, gooseberry and citrus that makes for a thirst-quenching, zingy style of white. This is made from old vines grown at high altitude in Rueda in northwest Spain – it ticks all the boxes for a top quality example

Tasting NotesPassion fruit and gooseberry with tangy lime acidity and plenty of zing. Light-bodied, this would work well as an aperitif or with a fresh green salad. Good length of flavour, this is all about the fruit, no oak. Highly refreshing.
