The ENYE Group announces its new line of Verdejo wines from D.O. Rueda
The ENYE Group is pleased to announce its new line of Verdejo varietal premium wines from Bodegas Antaño. Verdejo is the primary varietal indigenous to the D.O. Rueda, located in the western part of the Valladolid province in Spain.
ABOUT BODEGAS ANTAÑO
The winery is located in the heart of the village of Rueda, the epicenter for the appellation of the same name. When we visited the winery in January, we were amazed by the facilities. Jose Luis Solaguren, the owner, is also a famous restauranteur in Spain and owns the famous "Jose Luis" tapas bars in major cities such as Madrid and Barcelona. We entered through a courtyard and down a corridor into the most amazing mini-museum to bullfighting we have ever seen! Also on site is a wonderful library and conference facility, as well as the production areas. The winery also keeps "nichos", or special underground cellars, for heads of state and celebrities throughout Spain. However, when we reached the end of the underground tunnels, something caught our attention ... they looked like Cava bottles but were filled with a Brut Nature Sparkling Wine made with 100% Verdejo! We could not believe it, but we quickly became believers after tasting this magic potion.
ALTA PLATA 2007 100% VERDEJO STILL WINE - ESTIMATED RETAIL $15.
Alta Plata is the winery's premium still white wine made entirely from the Verdejo Varietal. It has a medium intense golden yellow color with occasional green hues. On the nose it is big, with intense aromas of its Verdejo variety, hay and ripened tropical fruit. In the mouth, it is fresh, fruity, oily, big, consistent, round and balanced. It is easy to drink and makes a great summer wine.
AÑ SPARKLING VERDEJO - BRUT NATURE - ESTIMATED RETAIL $22.
We love when people say "sparkling what?" when we tell them about this wine. We are very excited to be carrying something this unique with outstanding quality through and through. The winery produced only 10,000 bottles of this gem.
It is pale yellow in color with light greenish nuances. Abundant and small-sized bubbles echo persistently on the finish and form a pure crown. Complex and fruity on the nose with lees and almond aromas. Outstanding balance and simple on the palate, round, lingering mouth, fresh, easy to drink and very persistent.
For more information on these wines, please contact us via e-mail at info@enyegroup.com or call our office on +1 312 475 9477. Out of state (ex-Illinois) distributors' inquiries are welcome.

I had the honor of buying a bottle of the Verdejo at In Fine Spirits, in Andersonville, Chicago. I love verdejo and have to say it is a great one to have. I have to say I like it better than Con Class and Telmo's
