Belondrade Les Parcelles is the realization of Didier Belondrade’s dream to create an exceptional Verdejo that uncompromisingly reflects the terroir. It is based on two exceptional, perfectly complementary vineyards: La Cruz, a vineyard over 50 years old on gravelly and clay-rich soils, and Alameda, a bush-trained vineyard over 70 years old on distinctly sandy soils. Both parcels are located not far from the winery in one of the region’s finest sites. Only 2,149 bottles were produced from this exclusive vintage.
Didier Belondrade and Marta Baquerizo’s intuition was already confirmed with the very first harvest: the pure free-run juice needs time to unfold its full potential. After 18 months of aging in barriques, the wine is bottled and then stored further at the winery until it has reached optimal maturity and its full complexity and elegance. Belondrade Les Parcelles is released only when the family deems it ready to drink—which is why not every vintage makes it to the market.
On the nose, the wine displays exceptionally precise and terroir-driven aromas. On the palate, it is multi-layered and elegant, with remarkable maturity, great depth, and impressive complexity that expresses the character of Verdejo in a unique way.
This characterful Verdejo pairs superbly with fine fish dishes, shellfish, and white meat. It also harmonizes beautifully with refined vegetable dishes or aged hard cheeses.
