Bodegas Pedro Escudero Platon Verdejo 'Valdelainos' 2006 --Wine Enthusiast 90, Tanzer 88 750ml



$11.99
0 available
Not currently in stock.

"Light gold. Grassy and citrussy in a Sancerre way (I'd actually have guessed that, blind), with vibrant mineral and herb tones. Firm, focused and juicy, with precise citrus and mineral flavors, light weight and a long, spicy finish. Really outstanding for the money. 88 points."  Josh Raynolds, Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Jul/Aug 07.

"Consistency is a virtue in this business, and this wine tastes almost exactly like the highly recommended 2005. The nose blends green grass and golden fruits, while the palate is clean, intense and snappy. This is a wine that sings, and the interspersed notes of bell pepper, grapefruit and mineral are just right for Verdejo. Drink right away for maximum freshness."  90 pts, Top 100 Best Buys of 2007, Wine Enthusiast, November '07

The Wine Advocate:  88pts, Included on Spanish Wine Best Buy list.  Issue 175, February '08
