It is a vineyard of0.98 hectarescultivated in goblet, in the traditional way of the time. It has a limited production of 2,000 bottles.
All of the above, added to the careful winemaking process, makes this wine exceptional. The character of this unique vineyard and its environment, with deep, sandy soil, nestled among pine forests, gives the wine a unique personality with exceptional sensory characters, accentuated byaging on the lees in oval concretetanks and 500 liter French oak barrels.
It is a wine with complex aromas of white fruits, citrus, fennel with a mineral touch, very subtle and well integrated wood. The palate is broad with volume and good acidity, saline and very persistent.
For the event, a special menu was prepared and paired with several of our products: the appetizer was served with Castelo de Medina Verdejo 2021 and Castelo de Medina Verdejo VS 2020, followed by our Castelo de Medina Sauvignon Blanc VS 2020 to combine with the lobster salad, and the mushroom, truffle and foie ravioli was paired with Castelo de Medina Verdejo Fermented in Barrel 2020.
