Name: Palacio de Bornos Verdejo
Variety: Verdejo
Region: Rueda
Country: Spain
Year: 2013
Price: $12

Critic 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. (89) -Wine Enthusiast 

My Review: A light yellow color. I thought the nose was more floral than fruity, although some citrus was detectable. The dryness is sharp and hits the mouth immediately. This wine was challenging for me because it seemed almost flavorless. Besides the dry sensation, I was left searching for the flavors to come through. I would pass on drinking this wine again.

I tasted this without food.
