Salceda Rueda

In Rueda, the grapes are harvested at night. The result is an explosively fresh white wine with tropical fruit such as mango, pineapple, and papaya. In addition, aromas of lemon and fennel. In the Spanish wine region of Rueda it gets hot during the day, yet this wine from Viña Salceda has a pleasant freshness. That’s because the grapes are harvested at night. Early in the morning the grapes are brought to the bodega and, while they are still cool and fresh, they are pressed immediately. When making the wine, contact with oxygen is kept to an absolute minimum. The result is an explosively fresh white with tropical fruit such as mango, pineapple, and papaya. In addition, the Verdejo grape is known for its fennel aroma.
