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.
