Description
What kind of wine it is
Marques de Caceres Rueda Verdejo is a white wine produced by Marqués de Cáceres. Made from Verdejo grapes, it represents a pure expression of the Rueda region. It stands out for its fresh aromatic profile, combining notes of white flowers with hints of pear, apple, and intense citrus accents of grapefruit and lime. On the palate, it offers a brilliant acidity and a medium body, delivering a pronounced minerality. The structure is balanced by a creamy texture that leads to a persistent finish. This white, suitable for a vegan diet, is ideal as an aperitif or paired with shellfish and sushi.
Where it comes from
The grapes are grown in the Valladolid area, specifically between Serrada and La Seca. The vineyards, over twenty-five years old, are rooted in gravelly soils with excellent drainage, an essential condition for promoting aromatic purity. The land benefits from a vegetative cover, locally known as a green mantle: a sustainable agricultural practice that encourages biodiversity while limiting pests. These territorial characteristics define a vibrant style, capable of delivering clear freshness and distinct fruity notes in the glass.
How it is produced
Production begins with a rigorous night harvest, crucial for preserving the intense freshness of the grapes. The grapes are chilled before pressing to protect the delicate varietal aromas. The must ferments in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. The wine then undergoes careful ageing on fine lees until bottling, a process that imparts greater tactile complexity without weighing down the palate. This technique harmonises the flavour profile, concluding with a gentle bottling aimed at preserving all the nuances.
