Bodegas Ordóñez are considered one of the top local producers of Verdejo in Rueda thanks to their unique ancient vineyards which date back to 1885. Located near the town of Puras, this part of Rueda had the good fortune to escape the phylloxera disease which devastated European wine industry in the 19th century. Today the estate boasts one of just a handful of ungrafted Verdejo vineyards which is capable of producing sensational white wines.
To ensure the grapes reach the winery in perfect condition Bodegas Ordóñez insists on harvesting by hand. The wine is then fermented using indigenous yeasts in large oak barrels before spending 12 months maturing on the lees in those barrels to add a delicious creamy texture and additional complexity.
As you pour out a glass you’ll immediately notice the brilliant straw yellow hue and exotic aromas of ripe white peaches, pineapple, and toasty notes from the extended maturation process. The first sip reveals a full body, hint of acidity and very long finish with plenty of mature tropical fruit character. An ideal partner for chicken served in a creamy sauce, summer salads or hard cheeses like Manchego or Pecorino.
