Atlético de Madrid Verdejo White wine
The Atlético de Madrid Verdejo 2023 is a delightful white wine that captures the essence of the Rueda Designation of Origin. Produced by Licencias Gourmet Sport, this exquisite blend is crafted from Verdejo grapes sourced from various locations within the D.O. Rueda region. The vineyards range from youthful plants trained on trellises in gravelly soils to remarkable pre-phylloxera bush vines that are over 150 years old, located in the sandy terrains of Alcazarén—an area untouched by phylloxera, yielding an average of just 2000 kg/ha. This unique combination of vineyard age and site contributes to the wine's complexity and character.
In appearance, this wine exhibits a pale yellow hue with greenish reflections, showcasing its clarity and brilliance. The nose reveals a clean profile with high intensity, presenting the characteristic aromas of Verdejo, including fennel and freshly cut grass, complemented by notes of white fruits and a hint of tropical essence.
On the palate, the Atlético de Madrid Verdejo is notably complex, displaying a well-balanced interplay between acidity and bitterness. Its luscious character brings forth the fruity flavors noted in the aroma, while its impressive length encourages you to savor each sip. This wine pairs beautifully with dishes such as rice with fish, octopus or cuttlefish, seafood, sushi, white fish, as well as grilled meats or tuna tartare.
Experience the magic of Spanish winemaking with this exceptional Verdejo—perfect for enhancing your dining moments and sharing with friends.
