Bodegas Cerrosol El Portalon Verdejo

Bodegas Cerrosol is a family owned winery located in the heart of the Rueda appellation. Their vineyards are their pride and joy. The high altitude (830m to 910m) means that the temperature swings from day to night are dramatic, which adds complexity to their wines; due to the sandy soils, the vines can grow safely phylloxera-free, which the family feels allows them to better express the terroir. From sandy soils, and vineyards planted in high altitude, fermented in steel and aged for 3 months before bottling, the finished wine is fresh and expressive, with notes of citrus, hay, fennel, and tropical fruits.
