If you’re in the mood for a fresh, crisp wine that still has plenty of body and aroma, a Verdejo from Rueda is exactly what you’re looking for.

Verdejo is the most widely planted grape variety in the Spanish region of Rueda, so the two terms are inextricably linked. Think Rueda? Then you think of an aromatic Verdejo, with beautifully fresh acidity.

Five years ago, it was nowhere to be found on any wine list, but nowadays you can simply find it among the house wines in many places. The wine is even so popular here that we are the world’s largest Verdejo buyers. Want to know everything about the grape? Our Miss WineLane explains here everything you ever wanted to know about it.
