Eladio Pineiro La Coartada Red Alentejo
| Vintage: | 2009 |
|---|---|
| Description: | Eladio wanted to make red wine, and he knew Rias Baixas was not the place for it, so he bought an estate with vineyards near his holiday home in the Alentejo and made a red wine which is again about as far from an industrial wine as you can get. Four Years in new barrels, 3 years in stainless after that, at least six months in the bottle, no clarification, no fining etc., designed to be drunk on release but will age effortlesslyThe methods are somewhat evocative of Lpez de Heredia in the sense that the wine is released when deemed ready to drink, while remaining capable of much longer aging. But the warmer Portuguese climate makes for a broader shouldered vein, not at all overripe but concentrated, minerally, and sublime. |
