2015 | Ossian Vides y Vinos | Capitel Verdejo

Old golden yellow color with greenish reflections. Complex, toasty aromas, nuts, dried fruit. Surprisingly nuanced and profound. Fresh, full and very light.

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: The 2015 Capitel is riper and feels more advance. It has more alcohol and a rounder palate, with more varietal character and less soil than the 2014, which was the most mineral of all. It finishes with the classical bitter twist in the finish. This feels ready now.

• Jeb Dunnuck: Straight-up awesome stuff, the 100% Verdejo 2015 Verdejo Capitel comes from the older vines of the estate and was fermented and aged in four 228-liter and one 600-liter barrel. Thrilling notes of orchard fruits, white flowers, crushed rocks and toasted bread all flow to a full-bodied, concentrated white that has perfect balance, bright acidity, and a great, great finish. It knocks it out of the park on all accounts and is an incredible Verdejo that has both richness and elegance.

Producer Information

The vineyards are located in the town of Nieva (Segovia province), the highest in altitude among of all the villages that are included in the D.O. Rueda, between 840 and 930 meters above sea level (150 meters in the area near the Duero River). This causes a specific climate, with higher thermal oscillations between day and night in the valley, delaying the harvest date and, finally, improving the quality of wine. Moreover, Ossian has been certified Organic for more than seven years. The winery does not get a single chemical synthesis, or fertilizer, herbicides or fungicides of any kind. It is the oldest registered and certified organic vineyard in the D.O. Rueda.
