Marques de Caceres Verdejo


Tuesday, March 18, 2014

Name: Marques de Caceres

 

Variety: Verdejo (12.5% Alcohol)
Region: Rueda
Country: Spain
Year: 2012
Price: $9


My Review: The color appears to be a pale gold with a hint of green.  It looks to be medium bodied for a white wine with slight legs.  This wine has a very fruity aroma.  I smell apple, pear and apricot.  Apple is the dominant aroma I smell.  Overall it is a fairly smooth wine with slight acidity.  It is very sweet and fruity, but there is also a metallic aftertaste that for some reason reminds me slightly of chlorine 


Winery Review: This white wine by Marques de Caceres from the Rueda D.O. revels in full virtues of the Verdejo grape.  Intense bouquet, vibrant fruit and long-lasting flavors.  Delicious as anapertif and with salads, fish, seafood, pasta, etc. 



I did not drink this with food
I might drink this again (6.5/10)
