Drinkable or wott? 100% verdejo and with un peu d'influence from Bx this goes down a treat. Can't nail it however. A little oily, a little catty, a little dry finish. and more. There it was.....gone! Probably won't buy more but did enjoy it. And yes, of course I'm sober. Trusssssssst in me. |

There are some decent reviews for this, 88/100 from Wine Gang. Winter approaches, Verdejo / Viura- more of a summer wine but that shouldnt stop you enjoying it. |

How topical. I have just restarted my computer after moving the room around from it's summer to winter format. In summer it is in the window and I get the sun and am able to spy on the populace. In winter I have to clear the radiator. I also vacuum at this time each year whether it needs it or not. |

I love this wine, in particular, but Rueda generally. We don't discuss it enough. It's very Sauvignon like and you goggers ought to like it. |

On to 2010 and on to £6.49. Still (consistently) lovely. Now a firm regular. |

I had the Riscal Rueda 09 in Spain last year. I have to say I was disappointed. I was expecting much more. I was surprised that while I was there I could not find a single oak aged white. |

My last of the '09s (Maj now has '10). Delightful glug. Mmm. Let's see how the 10 is next order. |

Should one start a new thread ? Nah ! One of this wine's assets is consistency. 2011 now and still really drinkable. Somehow disparrued from Maj site but I bought this within the last 6 weeks at £6.49. Magic stuff...no pretentions but dangerously quaffable. |
