Place: Rueda, Spain Grape: Verdejo Vibe: HecticEsmerleda makes four single-plot wines, this being the most powerful and intense. This site sits at a higher altitude in a sun-drench ed, plateau-shaped with distinctive gravelly soils. Short maceration, vertical press before 6 months on fine lees in 500-litre clay vessels. Everything here is dialled up: concentration, texture, and drive. Yet it retains its aromatic lift, with a chalky, mineral core. Salvating rn. ABV: 13.5% Show more
