This is a 100% Verdejo that, usually, never disappoints and sold at a very attractive price. I used to buy this wine when, at times, I passed by the km. 170.6 of La Coruña highway.
I’ve tasted this wine before but not for a while – your post reminds me that I should try it again. I agree, it’s good for the price. A refreshing white for the summer.
If you ask for my favourite Rueda wines (100% Verdejo) I’ll suggest Marqués de Riscal Rueda Verdejo 2014 (below €7) and my favourite Finca Montico 2014 (below €13). More affordable Blanco Nieva Verdej0 (below €6) Basa (below €7) and have good memory of Verdejo Martinvilli at around € 6.
Thanks, Jose. Funnily enough, the Marqués de Riscal Rueda is another favourite! Haven’t come across the Finca Montico, but I’ll be trying a Finca Lallana Verdejo next month. Hoping for good things.
If my info is correct you refer to Menade Verdejo http://menade.es/menade-verdejo/ Finca Lallana Verdejo 2014 I presume is the name they used now for export.
Let me know what you think of it.
