Tasting Notes

A smoky brooding red from Rías Baixas on Spain's Atlantic coast.

Smoky blackberry and raspberry fruit flavours, bramble, spiced, alpine fruit and herbal notes, with a touch of mountainous undergrowth.
Taunt on the palate, light bodied and dry, bright acidity with subtle tannins, textured with a slight grip and a touch of prickly fruit, and a long smoky finish.

Producer: Nanclares y Prieto
Region: Rías Baixas - Galicia, Spain
Grapes: Mencía, Caiño, Espadeiro, Sousón, and Brancellao

Nerd Notes

From 8 organically farmed plots of 15–95-year-old vines in the villages of Salnés and Condado zones, planted on sandy, decomposed granite, clay and alluvial soils and are trained in the traditional Pergola style that facilitates aeration.

The hand-harvested grapes were foot-trodden whole cluster and skin macerated for 21 days before being racked into 73% used French oak casks and 27% stainless steel tanks. The wine fermented and rested on its lees for 11 months, with weekly battonage for the first 3 months. Bottled without stabilization or clarification, and with only a gentle mechanical filtration and small addition of SO2. The wine aged an additional 9-10 months in bottle before release.
