Verdejo is an aromatic white from Spain, most notably Rueda. It has the potential to make very high quality wines which is why it is undergoing something of a renaissance at the moment after having languished in obscurity for generations. It has many similarities with Sauvignon Blanc; plenty of herby, grassy notes and goes a little bit nutty with age. It blends well with Viura and also Sauvignon Blanc where it's often used to add body and richness to Sauvignon's aromatic lift. Its finest manifestations tend to be from Rueda Superior, which must contain a minimum of 85% Verdejo.

This is very good value for money. A Piedmont red under $30! It has good dark fruit, some nice tannins and acid to balance although it would benefit from some more age to smooth it a bit but I liked its feistiness now.
I was happily surprised by the quality of the labels in the "mystery" case of rose wines - great value for the money I must say. Excellent drinking experience from the unfamiliar labels and happy to enjoy again the familiar ones.
