Wines made from Verdejo grapes of Tarragona
Discover the best wines made with Verdejo as a single variety or as a blend of Tarragona.
Lively, aromatic whites with sharp acidity and a sleek palate, with intense aromas of grapefruit, lime, fresh herbs, fennel, green almond and saline notes. Typically slightly bitter finish. Absolute star of Rueda DO in Castile-León, now widely exported. Also made as lees-aged and oak-influenced structured cuvées. Native Spanish variety, an ancient Castilian grape.
Catalan DOP (~7,300 ha) on Camp de Tarragona and Ribera d'Ebre, temperate Mediterranean climate. Signature Cava trilogy in lively whites: Macabeo with signature notes of citrus, green apple, white flowers and an almond touch; more structured Xarel·lo (pear, fennel, herbs); delicate floral Parellada. Ull de Llebre (Tempranillo) reds round with notes of ripe cherry and leather, solar Garnatxa, dense Carinyena. Tradition of sweet Tarragona Clàssic.
