So special, sweet strawberries — 12 years ago
Mix of ripe and tart red fruits. Lots of red candy things going on-- slightly anisey licorice, with a Spree/Sweet Tart tangy finish to it (dang I love that candy). Also brings in a bit of red pepper and almost a eucalyptus or sprucy element. A touch of sweet paprika
Tannins are soft and silky, acid is medium/medium plus. Alcohol medium. Magenta starting to take on just a but of Ruby hues. Finish is long and tangy.
This would be my dream wine if it had just a bit more rustic, underbrushy, stemminess and minerality. Really tasty.
Wine has Pedral, Sousón, and Espadeiro and has spent 6mo crianza-- really curious about the oak aging. I'm assuming old neutral barrels bcz there's no oaky spice or vanilla there.

This is a Galician (Rias Baixas) grape sometimes referred to as "Caíño Redondo", but not the same as the Espadeiro of Portugal that is made into a red Vinho Verde. Anyway it is damn good, kind of like Mencía, but also like a cross between a Bourgogne and a Tannat minus the big tannins. Really interesting. — 9 years ago

First #VinhoVerde wine of the trip - rad rose bubbles. If this is what's to expect, I'm excited! — 11 years ago
Nattyish. Straightforward, raw aromas of cassis, ripe plum. Lifted and high-toned from VA. Rather short finish, but the freshness and pop compensates. Needs a roasted haunch of beast to show at its best. — 6 years ago
