Get to know: Cal Y Canto Verdejo 2024

A vibrant and refreshing Spanish white wine from the heart of Castilla-La Mancha.

Tasting Note

Cal Y Canto Verdejo 2024 is a zesty white wine that captures the crisp, aromatic, character of Verdejo.  Pale straw in colour with lifted aromas of lime, green apple, fresh herbs, and a touch of white peach. On the palate, this Verdejo is lively and medium-bodied, bursting with citrus and tropical fruit flavours layered with subtle grassy notes. It finishes with a bright, refreshing zip of acidity and a clean mineral edge. This wine is a brilliant example of how the region produces modern, fruit-forward whites with real elegance and charm.

Top food pairings:

• Grilled sardines with lemon and parsley
• Goat’s cheese and asparagus tart
• Chicken skewers with garlic and herbs

Kate Says
