Jun 4th, 2019Ladera Sagrada has the largest holdings of vineyard land in the Valdeorras appellation, and the bodega makes wine using only the best 20% of its grapes, rest sold in bulk to other producers. Aromas of citrus and stone fruits and slight spicy notes. On the palate peach, lemon and crisp melon flavors and sweet pepper spice. Medium finish, generous acidity ending with mineral character. Nice value. Tasting Sample.

Cool grape. Some melon notes. Particularly cantaloupe. Pretty easy acidity. Good price.
