Vineyard
Made solely and exclusively from grapes grown in our Caserío de Dueñas estate. The vineyard reaches 21 years of age this year, the start of a period of maturity that is clearly expressed in this wine. The soils for the Verdejo are clay-based with pebbles; sandier and cooler for the Chardonnay, while those near to the Zapardiel river give the fantastic freshness found in the Sauvignon Blanc.
Vinification
Mechanically harvested at night, the grapes are then processed very quickly as the winery is found in the very same estate. Light pressing, fermentation in stainless steel and ageing on the lees for three months before blending.
Maturation
The wine was left in tank on its fine lees for three months before bottling.
Food Pairing
A very versatile wine, it can be served as a aperitif as well as an accompaniment to main dishes. Ideal with stewed, oven-baked or barbecued fish and seafood, pasta, fresh salads, risottos, rice dishes with fish or mixed meat and seafood (mar y montaña), vegetable terrines, foie gras, soups and soft cheeses. Try more daring matches with stronger flavours such as truffle.
