Varietal Verdejo

2009 Rueda Verdejo

Jose Pariente Varietal Verdejo from the 2009 vintage is a delightful expression of the Verdejo grape, beautifully hailing from the esteemed Rueda region of Spain. This white wine showcases a light to medium body that perfectly balances its refreshing and vibrant profile. The acidity is bright and lively, providing a mouthwatering quality that invites you to take another sip. The fruit intensity shines with prominent notes of green apple, citrus zest, and a hint of stone fruit, offering a delightful complexity to the palate. Its overall dryness enhances the wine's crispness, making it incredibly food-friendly for a variety of culinary pairings. The finish is clean and invigorating, leaving an enjoyable impression that captures the essence of Rueda's unique terroir.
