Bodegas Pedro Escudero Fuente Milano Verdejo Viura is a brilliant greenish-yellow colour, its elegant nose displays the classic, gently herbal notes of Verdejo which are softened by the tropical fruit-scented Viura. In the mouth, Fuente Milano has a range of very fresh, white and yellow fruits which give complexity. Expressive, with good length and it's top value.

One of our favourites and great value for money. We found this at a wine fair in central Spain and while all other growers were trying to charge much higher prices for something much less appealing, the Escudero family got the quality and price just right in our opinion. Bodegas Pedro Escudero Fuente Milano is a 50/50 blend of Viura and Verdejo. Fuente Milano is allowed to rest on its lees for a couple of months to enhance the richness of its palate.

Not so many years ago, Spanish white wines tended to be oxidised and very unappealing. Here, with the wonders of modern oenology and good attention to detail, the Escudero family have turned out a classy white wine with a great crowd pleasing character that's just as good with or without food.

OUR GROWERS

Bodegas Pedro Escudero

Located in the Rueda DO, Bodegas Pedro Escudero sits on the outskirts of the village of La Seca. While the Escudero family has only been bottling its own wines since 2002, they have been producing grapes in the Verdejo region for several generations. Their vineyard “Fuente Elvira” is planted with 65 hectares of Verdejo and 10 hectares of Viura. It is highly regarded in the Rueda district for its famously rocky soil. The patriarch of the family, Pedro, is also highly regarded for his production knowledge, and is frequently approached by neighbours looking for advice about vineyard issues. The Escudero family believes strongly in traditional viticulture without the use of fertilisers or pesticides, as well as gentle vinification.
