First time trying this white wine from Barraida appellation in Portugal on the coast north of Lisbon. I'd buy more. Blind, I'd guess a beautifully balanced Albariño. It's quite early in the drinking curve. Although this does go through malo.... so it's pretty crisp at first but the ln mellows with air.....it seems quite early in the drinking curve.
A 50/50 blend of Bical and María Gomes grapes from an old plot Vinha da Alagoa, and it matured for 22 months in a 1,000-liter Mosel foudre.Paired scrumptiously with Bienville oysters, pan roasted scallops and grilled lobster tails.
