About Verónica Ortega Tormenta

The most promising vigneronne from Cádiz is back! Verónica Ortega is once again drawing in all eyes and palates with her new wine, Tormenta, a single-variety Godello aged in oak barrels and amphorae.

Verónica Ortega continues to use her expertise and sensitivity to make wines within the D.O. Bierzo, this time in San Juan de la Mata, in the north of the denomination where Verónica has taken a chance on 0.8 hectares of the Godello variety. Until now, she has only used Garnacha Tintorera, a little Palomino, Merenzao, Valenciana and Mencía; now this new variety grows in vineyards over 25 years old on clay and limestone soils, at an altitude of 650 metres, showcasing the most mineral and sharp profile of this white variety.

Verónica Ortega Tormenta is harvested by hand and taken to the winemaker’s small cellar, where it is destemmed and undergoes an overnight maceration. During this time, Verónica Ortega Tormenta is also racked, becoming completely clean and perfect to begin fermentation. This step happens spontaneously with native yeasts. Thirteen months in barrels and amphorae will give the final and unique touch to this elegant white with character.

2021

Verónica Ortega Tormenta 2021 is a creamy white with aromas of white fruit, citrus notes and herbal hints. On the palate it is fresh, elegant and balanced. A wine with very lively acidity, a savoury texture and a very marked minerality from start to finish.
