The 2010 Verdejo contains no Viura and is all the better for it. It a more substantial, spicy, savory offering that will pair well with raw bar. It is a solid value for drinking over the next 1-2 years. Importer: Axial Wines USA; www.axialvinos.com

Very good for the region, with minerally aromas, sweat and nettle, and then green fruit scents like lime and apple. The palate has a sheer, clean quality along with mineral notes in front of lemon and tangerine flavors. Then it ends in light, airy, correct fashion. A nice Verdejo to drink right away.——M.S.(11/1/2010)—— 88

Nearly as good as the Viura, is the 2006 Verdejo. Its nose features mineral and melon and the flavors are nicely focused. It is not quite as concentrated as its sibling but still a fine effort. This is an excellent value.Importer: Axial Wines USA; www.axialvinos.com

A bit fuller than the Verdejo-Viura blend but every bit as functional and satisfying. Melon, pineapple and passion fruit aromas are full rather than crisp, while the grapefruit and orange flavors sizzle. More than decent length, structure and finish.——M.S.(12/31/2004)—— 87
