Description

VARIETAL: Verdejo
REGION: Castilla y León, SP

"The first wine produced each harvest from the early picked Verdejo. Bottled under high density, disgorged after 3 months on lees. Green apples and mandarin, generous fruit and textured, yet at the same time its got presence and zippiness. A good bulle, fruit forward intertwined with freshly baked brioche, spades of freshness. Persistent and long, a serious pét-nat." - Liz Carey, importer
Ismael Gozalo is a fifth generation winegrower and winemaker from Nieva, a village in the province of Segovia. This is Verdejo country and Ismael is colloquially known as ‘the wizard of Verdejo’. Pre-phylloxera, ungrafted old vines between 100-260 years of age that have never seen chemical treatments, deep sandy soils and an elevation of 800-900m above sea level, the quality of fruit is out of this world. Matched with a meticulously clean cellar and precise winemaking without any additions, MicroBio is a producer to look out for.

Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
