Ask Sofíaarrow_forwardTechnical sheet
Nose
Expressive varietal aromas of passion fruit, white grapefruit, and freshly cut grass, underpinned by a subtle wet-stone minerality.

Lively and fresh on entry, with well-integrated acidity, a clean mid-palate texture, and bright citrus-driven fruit.
Finish
Clean, persistent finish with lingering notes of zesty lemon pith and green herbs — refreshing and moreish.
Castelo de Medina Sauvignon Blanc is a benchmark white wine from the Rueda DO, produced by Bodegas Castelo de Medina from Sauvignon Blanc grapes grown on the high plateaus of Castilla y León. The 2025 vintage captures everything that makes this appellation exciting for lovers of aromatic, food-friendly white wines — freshness, precision, and a genuine sense of place.
Rueda's continental climate, characterised by significant diurnal temperature variation, is ideally suited to Sauvignon Blanc. Cool nights help the grapes retain their natural acidity and build complex aromatic profiles, while warm days ensure full phenolic ripeness. This wine is fermented at low temperatures to lock in primary fruit aromas and is released young, unoaked, allowing the varietal character to shine without interference.
On the nose, expect an inviting bouquet of passion fruit, white grapefruit, and freshly cut grass, with a subtle stony minerality that speaks to the terroir of the Rueda plateau. The palate is lively and well-structured, with bright citrus-driven acidity, a clean mid-palate, and a refreshing, lingering finish with a hint of zesty lemon pith.
This is a highly versatile, food-friendly wine that pairs beautifully with grilled sea bass, prawns with garlic, light goat's cheese salads, and fresh seafood dishes. It also works wonderfully alongside ceviche, light pasta dishes with herbs and lemon, and vegetable-forward Mediterranean fare.
