De Alberto Ecológico 100% Verdejo DO Rueda 2021 has also obtained the Gold Medal at the CINVE Awards
De Alberto wines have received new awards in recent days that recognize their quality and the work carried out by the winery.
Thus, De Alberto Dorado has been awarded a Bacchus de Oro at the XX Bacchus International Wine Competition 2022. A jury made up of 80 members has selected this 100 % Verdejo DO Rueda from the best of the competition, aged oxidatively in demijohns of glass and aged in oak casks using the solera method.
Bodegas de Alberto is currently the only traditional producer of Dorado de Rueda, under the exclusive method of oxidative aging in demijohns exposed to the sun and subsequent aging in soleras, preserving the mother of more than 70 years. It is a traditional method that the Gutiérrez family has maintained uninterruptedly since the 1940s and that has been transmitted from generation to generation.
In addition to this Gold Bacchus, the winery has also seen recognition this week for the work done with its De Alberto Ecológico 100% Verdejo DO Rueda 2021, made with Certified Organic Agriculture vineyards that has won a Gold Medal at the CINVE Awards.
It is a wine from an organic 100% vineyard that has received the most meticulous care and expert vinification. A refreshing and intense Verdejo, in which its citrus and white fruit aromas stand out, which has become a benchmark Verdejo. Powerful on the palate and faithful to the character of the varietal with a pleasant memory.
Finally, another four De Alberto wines have obtained medals in different categories at the Mezquita Awards held in Córdoba. Thus, De Alberto Dorado, De Alberto Dorado Dulce and De Alberto 80 Aniversario have obtained a gold medal while De Alberto Pálido has obtained a bronze medal.
These new recognitions join those that Bodega de Alberto has been achieving in recent months, including the Silver Medal in Vinalies with its Finca Valdemoya Rosado, the recognition for Best Fortified Wine at the 2021 Verema Awards, this time with De Alberto Dorado, and the special mention for the Best Wine Tourism Project, for being among the three most voted initiatives in the same framework.
De Alberto Dorado also has the distinction of "exceptional" with 98 points in the Decanter tasting panel. Two recognitions that are added to the Great Golden Zarcillo achieved last October, in the last edition of these awards, to the Platinum Medal at the 'Decanter World Wine Awards' obtained for two consecutive years; the Great Gold Medal at the Concours Mondial de Bruxelles, the Great Gold Bacchus; the Great Gold Medal in Vinespaña; the 95 Guía Peñín Points or the 91 Parker Wine Advocate Points.
