Peach, nectarine and green pear aromas and flavors dominate this ripe-styled Verdejo-Viura blend. Typical of Rueda, it’s citrusy and a zesty, but there’s enough warmth and heft so that you wouldn’t call it steely or stark. Drink now.——M.S.(2/1/2008)—— 86

Sulfurous early on, and then citrus and apple blossom aromas get into the game. The palate is ripe and tropical, with melon, mango and banana flavors. With no angularity or sharpness, this is an easy wine with soft edges. Drink now before it gets even softer.——M.S.(2/1/2008)—— 85
