Product Description
Details

This is the new vintage of Nisia, an interesting example of the Verdejo grape variety made by Bodegas Ordóñez.

It is made from old vines located at an altitude of 950 metres above sea level. Soils are composed of sand and rocks and have extremely low levels of organic matter.

Manually harvested and selected both at the vineyard and in the cellar, 40% of this white wine from Rueda was fermented in stainless steel tanks, where it was also aged for 8 months on its lees.

The remaining 60% of this young white wine from Rueda was fermented in French oak barrels and aged on its lees for the same time with periodic stirrings.

Finally, Nisia 2021 was blended and further aged for a brief period of time prior to its bottling.

Pair with rice dishes.

Additional Information
Appearance

The white wine Nisia is medium straw with golden tinges.

Nose

Well-defined and seductive, this Verdejo white wine shows some primary aromas of white and yellow fruit and aromatic herbs, with some touches of tropical fruit and a bitter note.

Palate

This old-vines Verdejo is intense and creamy, evoking notions of exotic fruit and yellow fruit, some mineral undertones and remembrances of aromatic herbs. This wine of Bodegas Ordóñez has a well-balanced acidity and long, slightly bitter finish.

Our personal opinion

A remarkable value, Nisia 2021 delivers complexity and local character at an affordable price.
