Viticulture: This wine is made with the variety of grape Verdejo, from a controlled vineyard of 26 years of age, in formation of trellis, located in the municipality of Rueda (Valladolid). At 761 meters of altitude. The abundant spring rains have made us return to productions and dates more normal of recollection, making us forget the dramatic harvest of 2017. The excess of rain has forced us to be more aware of the vineyard, applying treatments to prevent fungal diseases. But the good weather conditions under which the harvest has been developed, guarantee that the wines produced in this season are of excellent quality. The sanitary level of the grape and the homogeneity of her maturation, have allowed us to obtain a very aromatic, balanced and very attractive coloured Verdejo’s.
