A blend of 60% Verdejo, 25% Viura and 15% Sauvignon Blanc aged on its lees in stainless steel, this is a light to medium-bodied, pure, floral-scented, nicely textured, crisp white that admirably demonstrates the remarkable progress Spain has made with its white wine program. It comes from a vineyard planted in pure limestone at a relatively lofty 2,700-foot elevation, and includes fruit from 80- to 120-year-old parcels. Drink it over the next year.

The 2010 Con Class is made up of 60% Verdejo, 25% Viura, and 15% Sauvignon Blanc fermented and aged in stainless steel on the lees for 6 months. Most Verdejos blended with other varietals tend to be insipid because of dilution. Here the Viura and Sauvignon add an element of complexity that enhances the stone fruit and mineral aromas and flavors of the Verdejo. It is a crisp, vibrant offering as well as an excellent value for drinking over the next 12-18 months. Importer: Eric Solomon Selections, Charlotte, NC; Tel. (704) 358-1565

The 2009 Con Class is composed of 60% Verdejo, 25% Viura, and 15% Sauvignon Blanc. Light straw-colored, it has an expressive perfume of baking spices, spring flowers, and tropical aromas. Dry, crisp, and with excellent volume on the palate, this tasty effort will provide much pleasure over the next 12-18 months. It is another example of how special 2009 is in Rueda.
