Atypical Verdejo. Barrel aged. Full and round. It is a popular producer. Tough to rate as high QPR as it is about double the typical Verdejo. Though the better half just gave me the evil eye because I finished the last of it. Hence the happy plus! — 12 years ago

Straw-gold in color, the 2023 Belondrade “Quinta Apolonia” from the Castilla y Leon region of Spain is a lush (and beautiful) example of the Verdejo grape that is prominent throughout the Rueda region of Spain. The nose is inviting and rich, exemplifying all of the character traits that have helped to propel this Spanish beauty upon the unsuspecting masses. Hand-picked, the care taken during harvest expresses itself in the finished product. This is a full-bodied white that brings receipts. With its gold-rimmed nose to its perfect balance, the Belondrade Quinta Apolonia is a luscious and vibrant example of both the grape and the region. — 3 months ago
