Bodegas Félix Lorenzo Cachazo is a family owned and operated winery with several generations of tradition as white wine producers. They were among the 8 founders of Rueda D.O. in 1980 and control up to 25 acres of ancient prephylloxeric vineyards. Manía Rueda Verdejo comes from an accurate selection of grapes from one of the highest vineyards of Rueda, planted at 809 m. As a good example of Verdejo young wine, it shows a great fruity flavour with some herbal nuances. Fresh and delicious, it is a perfect match for summertime.

Vintage tasted: 2011 (October 2012)
