| Big and yellow, which is evidence of the oak aging on this plump, modern Verdejo that's made in small quantity and will appeal to those who like things such as Semillon and Chenin Blanc. The body is full, there's fruit, wieght and grip, and the ripeness versus minerality is just right. Drink know with cheese or fish. 300 cases produced. | |||||

| The barrel-fermented 2005 Naia Des is sourced from a single parcel of 80- to 100-year-old, ungrafted, Verdejo vines located in La Seca, a village which the locals consider to be the "grand cru" of Rueda. Light gold-colored, it exhibits an attractive perfume of vanilla spice, lemon-lime and honeysuckle. This is followed by a medium-bodied wine with an intense entry, mouth-filling fruit, and excellent balance. Drink this fleshy, tasty effort over the next 12-18 months. | |||||
