2005 Bodegas Naia – from mega importer Jorge Ordonez, this is a crisp and refreshing verdedo from the acclaimed Rueda region. Kind of like a savignon blanc, but it lacks the astringent, steely acidity and instead deftly... (2 replies, last updated by vinosnob May 31, 2007)

days in each of Bilbao and San Sebastian showed us why Basque cooking is so praised and the market in Barcelona (La Bouqeiria) can be matched only by the main market in Valencia. The white wines of Rueda (no oak and videjo grape)... (0 replies, last updated by jerry glynn August 4, 2004)
