Vintage
The 2024 vintage was characterised by a rainy winter and spring, with high temperatures. This has allowed a slower and more progressive ripening in our vineyards, finding a more favourable balance between acidity and pH in the musts, obtaining wines that are fresh on the nose, with fruity notes and floral characters.

Winemaking
100% Old Vine Verdejo, from the high, stony part of La Seca (village) and one specific vineyard - parcels #23. The must is cold macerated with the skins for eight hours at 7º C, enhancing the Verdejo?s characteristic aromas. Fermentation takes place at 14-16ºC, which helps to maintain and intensify the variety?s unique flavour. Afterwards, the wine is kept in contact with the fine lees to strengthen its structure by providing fatty acids and more ample and glycerine like sensations on the palate.

Aging
The grapes used to produce this wine come from parcel #23 in La Seca. The wine growing region of La Seca is widely considered the premium area in the appellation Rueda. Around 10% of the wine ages on the lees in new French oak for 3-4 months to gain structure and intensity. Out of the 80 hectares owned and controlled by Bodegas Val de Vid, we have selected some of the best vineyards and grapes that grow in poor rocky soils with good drainage.
