Hacienda Zorita, Vega Reina Verdejo, Rueda, 2014

Also from the same stable but a different region comes this very good Verdejo. Surprisingly deep colour with a whisper of spearmint and greengage on the nose. On the palate it is bright and zingy but with some weight and presence. The fruit spectrum is green apples, flint and stone fruits leading to a long refreshing finish, with a pleasantly bitter edge. Tasted at Decanter Fine Wine Encounter 2015
