Wines made from Verdejo grapes of Madrid
Discover the best wines made with Verdejo as a single variety or as a blend of Madrid.
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.
High-altitude Spanish DO (600-1,000 m), a qualitative renaissance led by old Garnacha vines. Sun-drenched, fine Garnacha reds with signature notes of ripe cherry, wild strawberry, garrigue, white pepper and a granite mineral touch, silky tannins and altitude freshness — San Martín de Valdeiglesias leads. Fleshy Tempranillo (Tinto Fino) at Arganda. Native Albillo Real whites, ample and floral (pear, honey).
