Legaris Verdejo (DO Rueda) has the aromas and flavours a modern wine, standing out as the perfect combination of explosive fruit and floral elegance. Legaris uses a combination of grapes from different vineyards: the skeleton of the wine comes from 20-year-old bush-trained vines from Segovia, which allow a
balance between aromatic intensity, volume and consistency in the mouth. They are complemented by grapes from Valladolid vineyards, which contribute intensity and aromatic nuances to balance the wine.
Winemaking:
Mechanical night harvesting of espalier-trained rows and daytime manual picking of bush-trained vines.
The grapes are unloaded into a hopper, sent to a destemmer-crusher and then left in the press for 2-4 hours
for pellicular maceration prior to pressing.
The must is cleaned by static settling and flotation and low-temperature fermented (14 °C/57 F) with choice
yeasts.
It is racked and left on fine lees for no less than two months. It is a young, unoaked wine.
Final treatment to ensure optimal stability and appearance.
