Agricola Castellana is a cooperative winery founded in 1935 with just 30 members. The coop now has roughly 400 members and 2,000 hectares all located in Spain’s Rueda D.O. Agricola Castellan’s Pampano ""Inspiracion"" is made from Verdejo (60%) and Viura (40%) grown on vines with an average age of 35 years. “Yellow pale colour wine, clean and bright racy scents of honeysuckle, fresh bay, lemon and white pepper. Juicy citrus and apple flavours are complemented by notes of spice and minerals.” Winery Notes.
Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Jul/Aug 08
(12%
alcohol) Green-tinged straw. Grapefruit and lime zest on the nose, with
dusty talc and mineral salt notes adding complexity. Tight, focused
citrus flavors offer good palate coverage without any impression of
weight. Finishes clean and brisk, with a hint of warmth and lingering
curry powder and mustard qualities. 87 points
