Verdejo

2008 Rueda Verdejo

Oter De Cillas Verdejo is a stunning white wine from the renowned Rueda region, crafted from the expressive Verdejo varietal. The 2008 vintage showcases a brilliant pale yellow color that invites the eye and promises freshness. This wine exhibits a light-bodied character, which is beautifully balanced by its high acidity, providing a crisp and refreshing palate. The fruit intensity is prominent, with vibrant notes of citrus and quince that dance on the tongue, while subtle herbal undertones add depth to the experience. This Verdejo is bone dry, allowing the natural fruit flavors to shine through without any residual sweetness. It is an exceptional choice for seafood dishes or as an aperitif, inviting sips that transport you to the sun-soaked vineyards of Rueda.

While its reputation as a serious wine destination was eclipsed by France and Italy for many years, ignoring Spain today means missing out on some of the world's most exciting wines. Enjoying hundreds of miles of sun-kissed coastline and rocky interiors at higher elevations, Spain provides an ideal location for vineyards. Whether it is sparkling cavas from Catalonia, crisp Verdejos from Rueda, sublime Tempranillos from Ribera del Duero or inky Monastrells from Valencia, Spain has many wine styles to explore, all expressing the country's wildly unique terroir.
