On the palate, the wine is fresh and lively. The acidity lends it intensity. The finish reveals a slightly astringent note, typical of Verdejo.

Food pairing
Food Pairing
This crisp, aromatic Verdejo is wonderfully versatile at the table. Its lively acidity and fresh character make it an excellent match for:
- Fish: particularly grilled or baked white fish such as sea bass or hake
- Seafood: prawns, mussels, oysters and other shellfish
- Rice dishes: seafood paella or other rice-based dishes with a light, savoury profile
- Aperitifs: ideal as a pre-dinner drink, served well chilled on its own
- Salads: fresh green salads, especially those with citrus or herb dressings
- Soft cheeses: creamy, mild cheeses that complement the wine's fruity, floral notes
Serve chilled, at around 8–10°C, to fully enjoy its fresh, aromatic character.

Winemaking
The vineyard soils are loose and well-aerated. In deeper layers, clay stores moisture for dry years. The significant temperature variations between day and night ensure a good balance between sugar and acidity.
At the winery, the grapes are destemmed and left to macerate on the skins for several hours. They are then pressed. Fermentation takes place slowly in stainless steel tanks at below 17 °C to preserve the freshness and aromas.
