Entre Pedras Verdelho 2022 is a full-bodied white wine from Pico Island in the Azores, Portugal. Produced from a blend of 85% Verdelho and 15% Arinto from the Azores – locally adapted variants of the better-known Iberian grape varieties of the same name – this salty, volcanic white was mainly matured in stainless steel tanks on lees for nine months, with about a quarter of the wine matured in used oak barrels for six months. Expect citrus and tropical notes, along with a marked minerality and a dry, saline finish.

The varietal 2022 Verdelho was produced with grapes from young vines. With 1,500 liters, 500 went into a new French oak barrel. They pick the grapes earlier, as they want a vibrant wine with more tension. 2022 was very challenging, and the grape is not an easy one. This has notes of tangerine peel and flowers. They do a little less malolactic in Verdelho when possible, as it has a higher pH than Arinto. It`s very tasty and salty, serious and balanced, clean, fresh and precise, with 12.5% alcohol and balanced freshness and acidity. 2,000 bottles were produced. It was bottled in June 2023. - Luis Gutiérrez
