Since the first vintage in 2004, Bodegas Naia has established itself as one of Rueda’s star producers. Winemaker Eulogio Calleja crafts wines with great depth which, like the striking labels, stand out from the crowd.hile most modern Rueda tends to be in a simple, aromatic, technological style, here the maturity of the vines, strict grape selection and extended lees ageing give wines with delicacy, ripe yet restrained stone fruit characters, lovely texture and the ability to age.
These fine grapes come from 5 acres of ungrafted bush-vine Verdejo planted on the sandy soils of La Seca, widely regarded as the finest cru in Rueda since the 19th century.
Tasting notes: Aromatics of ripe melon and pears balanced by yeasty notes. The palate is broad, textural and intense with well-integrated, toasty oak characters, kiwi and grapefruit acidity and impeccable balance. A deliciously bitter twist on the finish maintains the complexity of this fine Spanish white.
Food match: Pair with turkey and chicken in richly flavoured sauces or robust, meaty fish such as monkfish or halibut.
