2011 Telmo Rodriguez 'Basa' Verdejo (screwcap)
Best Basa yet, bar none, unequivocally, and a very, very good wine (in fact, unbeknownst to me, I judged it in a blind lineup recently and gave it a gold medal 18.5/20 on outright quality terms!). A not-so-fruity Rueda Verdejo with gently-softly-crunchy-driving palate nerve. Gorgeous texture without overt fructose, perfectly savoury minerality and really unbelievable length. Oh, yeah and some really yummy fruit, too.
