Basa is one of the pioneering wines to show the expression of a grape variety, the ‘Verdejo’ that adapted to a continental climate gives rise to a direct, fresh and expressive wine.
Region: Rueda
Villages: La Seca, Serrrada, Pozaldez, Foncastín
Varieties: 90% Verdejo and 10% Viura
Viticulture: Traditional, vertical trellis, pruned in cordon royat. Manual and machine harvest.
Elaboration and aging: Fermentation and aging in stainless steel tanks.
Soils: Gravel from fluvial terraces, erosion slopes and glacis.
Vintage characteristics: 2019 was a dry year. Apart from a notable reduction in yields, this had a very positive impact on the sanitary state of the vineyards. The extraordinarily healthy grapes were transformed into wines of high concentration and quality.
