Familia Torres Celeste Verdejo 2022

Tasting Profile Brilliant pale straw with greenish highlights, this Spanish Verdejo opens with expressive aromas of fresh-cut grass, white flowers, and citrus zest with subtle fennel undertones. The palate delivers remarkable freshness with crisp green apple, pear, and vibrant lemon flavors, complemented by a distinctive mineral backbone. Lively acidity carries the clean, persistent finish with hints of white peach and a gentle saline quality that speaks to Rueda's unique terroir.

Winemaker Notes Crafted by the esteemed Torres family winemaking team at their Rueda estate, this Verdejo highlights the exceptional potential of the region's chalky soils. The grapes are harvested in the cool early morning hours to preserve freshness, followed by gentle pressing and temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks to maintain the variety's vibrant character and expressive aromatics.

Vintage Notes The 2022 vintage in Rueda provided ideal conditions for Verdejo, with moderate temperatures and optimal rainfall distribution. This resulted in grapes with perfect balance between ripeness and acidity, creating a wine of exceptional aromatic intensity and structural elegance.
