Finca Saltamontes

100% verdejo from vines over 150 years old.

This is a very special, limited edition wine made with Verdejo grapes from Pago Saltamontes, a pre-phylloxera estate of 2.27 hectares, which was first registered in 1863, although there is evidence of earlier records. The soils are composed of sand and pebbles with a depth of eight meters and a layer of clay and limestone in the subsoil, characteristics that favor the natural drainage of the vines.

The grapes are harvested by hand at the optimum moment of ripening. Although this system involves intense work, it is worth it because of the high quality of the wines obtained. The winemaking process consists of extracting its full potential, particularly the fruity flavors typical of the variety, followed by a short maceration process to perfect its aromas and freshness, and finally, it is aged on its fine lees for several months before bottling.

Este Verdejo, de edición limitada, combina la frescura de la tradición con la elegancia de un proceso meticuloso. Cada sorbo revela la intensidad de su origen, la complejidad de sus aromas y la pureza de su esencia.

TASTING NOTES

It shows a beautiful golden yellow color with bright tones in thin layer.

Its nose is reminiscent of candied orange peel, bread dough, reminiscent of fennel and aromatic herbs.
It is exceptionally smooth and creamy on the palate, with moderate acidity and a long, pleasant finish.

The aging on the lees gives this wine an exquisite creaminess and smooth mouthfeel.
