El Cortijillo Verdejo


Name: El Cortijillo
Variety: Verdejo
Region: La Monacha
Country: Spain
Year: 2015
Price: $5.95
Shop/Critic/Winery Review: 90 Points – Beverage Testing Institute "Golden straw color. Bright, attractive, tropical aromas of creme brulee and fruit tart with a silky, bright, dry-yet-fruity light-to-medium body and a smooth, intriguing, snappy lime and apple finish with crunchy, fruit tannins and light oak. A super smooth and pure white sipper."


My impressions: Mineral nose, maybe a little slate.  Very clean.  Nice mineral qualities throughout. Nice and dry, with a light crisp finish. Can't believe this is $6.
