  Not bad, but it misses the mark. Soft mouthfeel and somewhat muddled flavors, though tropical fruit and banana come through.

  Delicious. Pale straw in the glass, pronounced aromas and flavors, nose of citrus blossom and tree fruits note tropical, palate is dry and complex, bright acidity, apple, citrus, Meyer lemon, creamy notes bring body and mouth feel, passion fruit, rocky minerality adds chewiness, full body, long explosive finish. Yummy.

  More gold in the glass than the usual verdejo. Agree with the tropical notes on the nose.... kinda Grenache Blanc. Those notes carry through on the palate, but a steely/stoney backbone and acid keep it vibrant. Finish takes different paths whether fruity, acid or stone. A well crafted and full bodied example of Rueda.

  Not usually a fan of Verdejo but this one is really good. Lots of tropical notes. Great value.

  Fully agree with previous TNs, recall the 16 being slightly better but this is consistently a delicious pour perfectly suited to warmer temps, providing a fair amount of flavor complexity and really great value.
