Fedellos Do Couto
Bastarda Merenzao
Ribeira Sacra, Galicia, Spain
Very pale ruby , watery rim . Quite light floral , sour cherry and sea breeze notes , wet stones . On the palate quite lean and high acid with a saline kick on the finish . Light red cherry notes , red currant , raspberry also. Very light tannins , behaves more like a rosé or white than a red really . Ok length with a stony edge . I presume this is best drunk now whilst the fruit is fresh, unsure how this would age . Now and over the next 2-3 years ? Certainly thought provoking ..
