Winemaker Notes

Light green-tinged yellow. Aromas of grapefruit, green apple and jasmine develop a dusty mineral nuance in the glass. Lively and incisive on the palate, offering nervy citrus and orchard fruit flavors and a hint of anise. Shows firm cut and tangy lift on the finish, which hangs on with good floral-tinged tenacity. -- Josh Raynolds

Wine Information

Ipsum is produced in the Rueda region located in the high elevation Castilian plateau, about 2 hours northwest of Madrid. Ipsum means, "itself" in Latin. The goal with Ipsum is to highlight the purity and bright flavors of the Verdejo variety in a naked form. Often times Verdejo wines are improperly “enhanced” during fermentation by using commercial yeasts that change the flavor that Mother Nature intended. As the name Ipsum (Itself) manifests, Ipsum is a naked, authentic expression of this pretty grape. The Verdejo vines that are selected to make Ipsum, come from a high elevation vineyard located on the northwest side of the village of Rueda. This vineyard is unique because of its high content of sand and river stone in the soil. This type of soil is very special because it imparts an element of vibrancy, tension and minerality that sets this Verdejo apart from other Verdejo's grown in sandy soils.
