I'm always open to try any type of wine, and even in case i don't love the flavour, i can enjoy and appreciate them almost always. Aroma of tobacco, blood and stables in a blauer portugieser (If interested: Rings Sand & Kiesel)? Might have been a weird experience, but could still enjoy the quality of the weirdness. Same goes for any other varietal i dont typically enjoy the flavours of, but i can still appreciate the quality of a decent wine made from it.
But verdejo hits me different. I have tried it many times over (at least 10-15 different producers) and they always seem to taste bad. They give me dishwasher-water soapy flavor every time, and otherwise just taste bland. Even though i don't usually drink high-end wines (my budget is about 10-30€) there should have been at least one i could enjoy. So i'd like to call upon your wise opinions for a good recommendation:
Any verdejo for up to 30€ (but possibly less) that might change my stance on the varietal? Thanks in advance.
