($15, Jorge Ordonez): Rueda, a small D.O. in northern Spain, remains under-appreciated as a source for reasonably priced vibrant white wines. This one, made entirely from Verdejo (not to be confused with Verdelho, a Portuguese variety also grown in Australia), has just the right balance of ripe green apple-like flavors and citrus zing. Pure and fresh–unencumbered by oak–it’s a great choice for the remaining days of summertime fare. 89 Michael Apstein Aug 31, 2010
