Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The 2023 Barco del Corneta was produced with the grapes from the vineyard in La Seca, in the Cantarranas lieu-dit or paraje, and it fermented and matured in oak barrels of different sizes with some work of the lees. It's a step up in complexity and depth, neatly integrating the oak and lees and making it balanced and approachable. It comes in at 13% alcohol and has a pH of 3.35, denoting good freshness. 112,500 bottles produced. It was bottled in August 2024.

Description

Barco del Corneta is an aged white wine made exclusively from Verdejo grapes by the Barco del Corneta winery in La Seca, VT Castilla y León.
The grapes used to make this wine come from centenary vineyards that grow on sandy and silt soils, and are located in the region of Tierra de Pinares in Valladolid at an altitude of 770 metres above sea level.
These vineyards have been cultivated with ecological techniques, respecting the environment and the diversity of the vineyard.

Winemaking

The grapes are harvested by hand and transported in 15 kg boxes. At the winery they are fermented in 300 and 500 litre oak barrels with local yeasts and left to mature for 12 months in French oak barrels. After this they are left in stainless steel tanks for 5 months.

Taste

Barco del Corneta is a wine with citrus aromas, accompanied by floral aromas. The palate is unctuous and fresh, with an impressive capacity to evolve and a pleasant bitter finish.

A deep and elegant wine

Barco del Corneta is a wine that brings to mind the oldest and most faithful verdejos of an almost extinct tradition, on the road to recovery.
It is a wine that represents Beatriz Herranz's personal commitment to rescue the essence of Verdejo, seeking to respect the varietal identity, the soil and the climate.
In the gastronomic field it is perfect as an aperitif and ideal to accompany white meats, soft cheeses, game, rice, pasta, or oriental cuisine, fish and seafood.
