In total, Condesa de Leganza now has over 1,100 hectares of vineyards filled with various grape varieties, including Verdejo. This grape thrives in the warm climate; the Verdejo grapes enjoy hours of sunshine but also coolness. Because the vineyard is situated at a higher elevation, there's always a breeze blowing through the vines, preserving the freshness of the Verdejo grapes. After a long and balanced growing season, the Verdejo grapes are harvested at night. This prevents damage to the bunches and oxidation during transport to Condesa de Leganza. Direct pressing follows, and the fresh juice is bottled after a short aging period in the Condesa de Leganza cellars.
This white wine is a bright, light yellow color with a striking green hue. This Condesa de Leganza Verdejo has a fresh aroma of tropical fruit, pineapple, citrus, and a subtle note of fennel and freshly mown grass. It has a smooth and refreshing taste, with a beautiful balance between acidity and floral, spicy notes.
