This wine was made from careful selection of Verdejo from old historic vineyards located on the rocky terrain of DO Rueda. The grapes are macerated and fermented in new French oak barrels, and the wine spends four months aging in a battonage sediment. Heavy rainfall in winter and hot, dry summer contributed to the uniform ripening of the grapes and a fruitful harvest of the highest quality.
