Arribeno Verdejo Cosecha 2017
I found this in one of Gran Canaria's big-chain supermarkets - Mercadona
I've enjoyed a number of verdejos over the years and sometimes they can be a little sharp, even mouth puckering.
This isn't like that - it's fresh and refreshing, with a smack of grapefruit (with caramelised brown sugar - balanced acidity and lush sweetness!) and almost a spritz of mouth-feel, coming not from any pettilance but just its fruity/acid balance pleasurably assaulting your taste buds.
I've enjoyed this both chilled (over heavily - oops) and also not so chilled and the flavour really does repay you if you don't just treat it as a blast frozen chugger.
Best of all, I found this gem at 3.95 euros in the Mercadona chain - a sheer bargain!
