Label A famous wine critic once referred to Rueda as a piña colada factory due to the tropical taste of its wines. This one is far from that.

Story Microbio (Micro-Bio) was founded by Ismael Gozalo in 1998. Coined by some as “El Mago de las Verdejos,” he practices his sorcery in his medieval underground cellar located in his native town of Nieva. Barrels, fudres, anforas, damejeannes, stainless…young, old, skin contact, sparkling, biological and oxidative aging…you name it, he’s got it. How Verdejo picked so ripe can still preserve such freshness and acidity is something only he can tell.

Tech info Grapes are 150+ years old, organically grown, hand harvested, fermented in clay amphora and aged in stainless steel tanks for about 3 months to preserve their young and fresh profile. Bottled unfiltered, unfined and without sulphites.
