On the palate, the wine is lively and crisp, with fresh acidity and a juicy structure. The taste is invigorating and subtly spicy, with a characteristic almond-like bitterness in the finish that provides length and tension. An elegant, fresh Verdejo with a pure and thirst-quenching character.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWine \u0026amp; Food Pairing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: muli,sans-serif\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBasa Verdejo\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: muli,sans-serif\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: muli,sans-serif\"\u003eis best enjoyed with light, fresh dishes. The wine pairs beautifully with fish such as grilled sea bass or dorado, but also works very well with shrimp in garlic and lemon. Thanks to its fresh acidity and subtle spiciness, it complements salads with goat cheese, fennel, or green apple, and even asparagus, which is normally not an easy combination with wine. This Verdejo also perfectly matches Spanish tapas like calamari or a simple tortilla española. It is best to avoid heavy, creamy sauces to preserve the freshness and aromatic character of the wine.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTelmo Rodríguez is a phenomenon and versatile winemaker who owns vineyards throughout Spain that combine history, top terroir, and quality. Fruit, relatively little wood influence, and immense drinkability characterize Telmo's wines. In a short time, his wines have found a place on the international stage. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA characteristic of Telmo is that he opts for indigenous grape varieties, which are also pruned in an indigenous way. This means that he only works with 'bush-vines', or vines that are not trained along wires but grow as independent bushes. The bushes are also spaced further apart than with wire training. This has two advantages in warm \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/spanje\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #B2002B\"\u003eSpain\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e: each bush finds enough moisture, even in dry vintages, and the bunches hang in the shade of their own leaves, so they are less 'stewed'. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTelmo likes to work with old vines, so that the roots go deep to find moisture. It also benefits the quality of the grapes. Old vines yield a lower harvest, but of high quality and complexity. Although not formally certified, Telmo works organically: he does not use artificial fertilizers or insecticides\/pesticides.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Telmo Rodriguez","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58944318112069,"sku":"P26500","price":9.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1078\/1183\/2133\/files\/6cf808e6ac1362e378adcd280123c1ff33897e6e.jpg?v=1787299210","url":"https:\/\/vechtstreekwijnen.nl\/en\/products\/telmo-rodriguez-basa-verdejo","provider":"Vechtstreek Wijnen","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
