What is this wine?
This is a Rueda Verdejo from Familia Torres, one of Spain’s most historic and respected wine families. Labeled under the Celeste line, the wine is made from Verdejo grapes grown in Castilla y León and aged briefly sur lie (on the lees), which adds texture and complexity while preserving freshness.
Why get this wine?
Torres brings its hallmark precision and consistency to Verdejo, a grape prized for its crisp aromatics and mineral character. The sur lie aging makes this bottling more layered than a standard Rueda, offering excellent value for a versatile, food-friendly white wine.
What does this wine taste like?
Bright and aromatic, with citrus, green apple, and fennel notes, layered with hints of white flowers and a subtle creaminess from lees contact. Crisp acidity keeps the finish lively and refreshing.
When should you drink this wine?
Best enjoyed now through 2026 for its vibrant freshness. Pair with seafood, tapas, goat cheese, or light vegetable dishes.
