Winery review: "The 2013 Basa is a white blend of Verdejo with 8% Viura fermented in inox and bottled unoaked. The nose is clean with notes of green apple and hints of fennel, balanced and subtle. The palate is medium-bodied with good freshness, refreshing easy to drink. Very good value and great quality considering the volume. Drink now." - 90 Points Wine Advocate
My Review: Really enjoyed it! First wine I have tasted at an official wine tasting and felt it was smooth with a subtle grassy, earth taste. Smelled slightly fruity, but had an underlying smell I couldn't quite make out. Although I could taste hints of some kind of fruit, i did not taste the green apple taste they refereed to above. Very refreshing and with a very reasonable price, I have added this wine to my list of wines to purchase.
I did not taste this wine with any food.
