Jose Pariente, Verdejo, Rueda, White, Spain, 2011

A fine wine is the one you begin to serve at home, with appetizers, and then pursue to dink it at a fancy restaurant. This much Isabel and I proved to be true at Madrid, Spain, with our friends Conchita and Pedro Cardelus.

Jose Pariente, Verdejo, Rueda, White, Spain, 2011, is a spectacular wine. Conchita and Pedro took us to O Pazo restaurant, Madrid, one of the best for seafood you can find in the world. And we had it with utmost pleasure.

After we had it at their home, that is. As it should always be: never have your guests drink a worst wine than the one you have yourself at home.
