Beautiful medium ruby. Juicy fruit without being overripe - red and black cherries cherries and plums. Wet violets, forest floor, touch of leather, good bit of peppery spice. Great acidity and texture. Expands nicely on the back of the palate, with a good finish. First Rias Baixas red and it sure overdelivered!

2014. Seems a little lighter than others have described. Maybe a vintage issue. Good with chicken and fatty fish. Drinkable. No funk.
