The 2024 Angel Rodríguez Rueda Verdejo Martínsancho is a beautifully vibrant and textural Verdejo from the historic vineyards of La Seca in Spain’s Rueda DO. Crafted from organically farmed old bush vines planted on deep gravel soils, the wine captures the purity, freshness and mineral tension that define great traditional Verdejo. The nose reveals grapefruit, lime and green apple layered alongside fennel, white peach and subtle wet stone minerality, giving the wine impressive lift and complexity.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with crisp natural acidity, juicy citrus fruit and a gently savoury texture from lees ageing. Layers of orchard fruit, saline minerality and subtle herbal notes are balanced by refreshing tension and a dry, stony finish that feels both energetic and beautifully refined.
