No formal notes taken. Wine is beautiful in all aspects. Wonderfully balanced and light on its feet. Really expresses what Galicia has to offer. Following a recent visit to the region I am completely sold on the quality of the red wines, especially those made from more of the ancient varieties other than the more common Mencia.

nose with a little smoke, meat, and some dark fruits. lively and fresh. light bodied and well balanced. really dances on the tongue. dark berries and a light tannic finish. something like a loire cab franc.
day 3- went for another taste and it is disjointed. drink now.

PNP. cork perfect. deeply colored. this has an intense white pepper note on opening but in contradiction to the color is very light and lively, likely owing to the low alcohol and acid structure. reminiscent of a beaujolais but far more serious

Not that deep plummy fruit of the 2014. Wild red berry fruit and some raspberry flower nuance.

Pure, sappy fruit with a little spice. Elegant, with the impression of a more structured wine, but ultimately lip-smacking and just fun to drink.
