Barco del Corneta 2023 Verdejo 750ml

The Barco del Corneta 2023 Verdejo is a strikingly elegant and expressive white that showcases the varietal’s depth and potential when treated with care. The nose is vivid and layered, offering aromas of ripe pear, green melon, fennel, and wild herbs, with a subtle undertone of crushed stone and anise. On the palate, it’s textured and mouthfilling yet taut, with a refined balance between ripe orchard fruit and saline minerality. There’s a gentle creaminess from lees contact, adding complexity without weighing the wine down. The finish is long and energetic, marked by citrus zest, white pepper, and a whisper of almond skin. A serious, terroir-driven Verdejo that rewards both contemplation and food pairing—particularly with seafood, grilled vegetables, or soft cheeses.
