Palacio de Bornos Verdejo


Name: Palacio de Bornos
Variety: Verdejo
Region: Rueda
Country: Spain
Year: 2013
Price: $12, on sale for $5.95
Shop/Critic/Winery Review: "Zesty and clean, with pure grapefruit and passion fruit aromas. It’s charged up but perfectly balanced, with bright, focused citrus and pineapple flavors. Lemony acidity keeps the finish rolling, then throw in some chive and fresh greens and you have a spot-on Verdejo."

My Impressions:
Apple on the nose, with a hint of honey.  Much thinner mouthfeel than the Grillo, and feels very light.  It has a tangy finish, slightly sour/tart, lingering on the sides of my tongue.  The acidity reminds me a bit of a Sauvignon Blanc.  Quite good, very clean and crisp.
