La Misión de Menade 2020 appears as a unique and exceptional white wine from Bodegas Menade. This wine is made from 100% Verdejo grapes sourced from very old vineyards growing in sandy soils of Castilla and León. The historical vines, many of them own-rooted, yield grapes of great concentration, allowing the creation of a wine that highlights its complexity and genuine connection to its origin. The wine-making process is meticulous, combining various aging techniques to impart greater depth to the final product. Part of the harvest ferments and matures in used French oak barrels, while another portion takes place in large vats, with a small quantity in amphorae. This entire process involves approximately 10 months of aging, followed by refining in the bottle before entering the market. Visually, the wine presents an attractive yellow color with golden reflections inviting to be tasted. On the nose, a fascinating complexity is noted, revealing aromas of ripe fruit, herbaceous notes of thyme, bay leaf, and fennel, accompanied by subtle mineral hints and a slight wooden background. On tasting, it is a full-bodied wine that shows good acidity and a long, fresh finish, where memories of citrus and ripe fruit are perceived. This white offers a striking personality and a gastronomic character, making it the ideal choice to pair with fish, seafood, rice dishes, or creative cuisine. La Misión de Menade reflects a deep and complex interpretation of the Verdejo variety, being a wine that will undoubtedly impress lovers of fine wine.
