Bodegas Naia-Vina Sila 'Naiades', Rueda, Spain 2019

Description

The grapes used in this wine are grown on pre-phylioxera vines that are over a century old, and they are located in small plots of land with a sandy surface. It is a sombre, concentrated, varietal wine; the maximum expression of the Verdejo variety. Original and groundbreaking, it has very little to envy from the best white wines in the world

Harvesting is carried out manually. A first maceration of the entire grape is carried out in a cooling chamber. The grape undergoes a selection process before a cold maceration of the de-stemmed grape and its subsequent pressing and fermentation in barrels. A batonnage is carried out during the barrel-ageing process
