SpainVerdejo is the signature white grape of Spain's Rueda region, prized for its aromatic lift and a distinctive faint bitterness on the finish reminiscent of almonds. Modern winemaking, including cool night harvesting, has moved it away from its old oxidized, sherry-like style toward a fresh, vibrant modern white. It's often compared to Sauvignon Blanc for its herbal, grassy character.
