Menade Nosso Verdejo Natural 2024
Menade Nosso Verdejo Natural represents a return to traditional winemaking in Rueda, crafted without sulfur additions in field or cellar.

Composition: 100% Verdeja from clay-limestone and stony soils with abundant pebbles
Winemaking: 100% natural viticulture with no sulfur or copper treatments, spontaneous malolactic fermentation with wild bacteria, partial barrel fermentation
Aging: 2-3 months on lees and sediments, followed by additional bottle aging
