Rio Lindo Verdejo Oak Aged Castilla-La Mancha
Rio Lindo Verdejo Oak Aged is a Spanish white Verdejo that offers a touch more depth than you're used to from many fresh, unoaked Verdejos. This wine comes from Castilla-La Mancha and is made as an accessible house wine with an extra layer of richness. What sets Rio Lindo Verdejo Oak Aged apart from a standard Verdejo? After fermentation in stainless steel, the wine is aged for several months in oak, giving it significantly more body and structure.
Vineyards and region
Rio Lindo Verdejo Oak Aged uses only Verdejo grapes from Castilla-La Mancha, Spain. This large inland wine region is known for its abundant sunshine, allowing the grapes to ripen well. The producer selects plots where the Verdejo retains sufficient freshness, ensuring the wine remains vibrant despite its oak aging. The wine is bottled in 0.75 liters and is typically supplied in boxes of 6 bottles, making it ideal as a regular wine for your cellar or on the table.
Vinification and maturation
Rio Lindo Verdejo Oak Aged is made from 100% Verdejo grapes. After harvest, the grapes are fermented in stainless steel tanks to preserve the fresh fruit and characteristic Verdejo aromas. The wine is then aged for several months in oak, a step specifically designed to add body and structure without losing its freshness. The result is a dry white wine with 12.5% alcohol, in which the combination of stainless steel fermentation and short oak aging creates both freshness and roundness on the palate.
Grape composition
Verdejo – Castilla-La Mancha
Rio Lindo Verdejo Oak Aged is made entirely from Verdejo, a grape that provides a fresh base of white fruit, while the wood aging gives the whole more depth and structure.
Tasting notes and serving suggestions
In the glass, Rio Lindo Verdejo Oak Aged has a pale yellow color with a green tinge, underscoring its fresh style. The nose reveals white fruit, complemented by a subtle touch of vanilla and wood. The palate is round and supple, with a soft mouthfeel and a long, delicate finish that beautifully balances fruit and light woody notes. Serve this Verdejo chilled and pair it with grilled fish or aged cheeses; its combination of freshness, creaminess, and subtle woody notes truly shines with dishes that are more flavorful.
