Rueda is known for its freshness, and this doesn't disappoint. Aromas of gooseberry and dried herbs lead into a fairly intense palate showing citrus fruit and herbs, with a tangerine and citrus pith finish. The refreshing acidity keeps it on its toes and makes you want to head back for another sip.
