Egeo Verdejo

The Verdejo from Egeo is a very pretty and expressive wine on both the nose and palate. The classy nose jumps from the glass in a mix of pear, casaba melon, a touch of candied lime peel, salty soil tones, a hint of beeswax and a lovely mix of gently savory and floral elements in the upper register. On the palate the wine is bright, full-bodied, focused and complex, with a lovely core of fruit, good acids and grip and a long, vibrant finish. This is very good Verdejo, produced from sixty year-old bush vines grown on alluvial soils.
