Palos


Palos Verdejo 
Variety: 100% Verdejo
Region: Spain
Country: Spain
Year: 2009
Price: $8


Winery review: 87 pts. Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate: June, 2010


Castellana’s 2009 Palos Verdejo is medium straw-colored with a nose of fennel, spring flowers, citrus, and apple. Crisp and vibrant on the palate, this tasty offering is a good value that will deliver pleasure over the next 12–18 months. 


My review:  I found the Palos Verdejo to be quite smooth. Additionally, I found the wine to be light and I would expect this to be a wine that couples well with food. I was unable to taste the wine with food however. The initial scent of the wine was also one that was light and smooth with that typical white wine scent.
