Condesa Eylo Verdejo Barrel Fermented

01/06

Vintage

2023 has been a year marked by significant heat waves in the months of July and August. This made it a slow and divided harvest to achieve the correct sugar maturation.This year the wines will be very balanced in acidity and pH, more fruity and fresh, with less alcohol than other years due to the excessive heat and the sudden rains that forced the harvest a little earlier. The 2023 vintage in the Rueda DO will once again offer excellent wines.

Winemaking

Fermentation takes place at 14-16ºC, which helps to maintain and intensify characteristic flavours. After fermentation, the wine is kept in contact with the fine lees to strengthen the structure of the wine by providing fatty acids and more ample and glyceric sensations on the palate. It will then rest for 4 months in new French Oak.

Tasting notes

Colour

Clean bright yellow straw colour with green tinges.

Nose

Aromas of freshly peeled oranges, with tree grown and tropical fruit (pear/banana).

Mouth

Dense and with a great mouthfeel - in part due to the 4 months in French oak on the lees - rich and crisp, with tree grown fruit flavours (pear) and a touch of orange zest and lemon peel.

Pairing

This wine goes well with all shellfish - especially oysters and clams - other seafood and smoked trout as well as with elaborate salads and pasta dishes with sauce. Also good to pair with mature cheese.
