Note di degustazione
Some of the riper aromas as seen in the 2017. Quite rich and broad on the palate. A tiny bit of alcohol on the end. A good easy introduction to the style and still very fresh. Still a little chewy so serve with food. Big and bold. (JR)

A blend from 16-18 parcels. Spicy, lightly smoky and ripe. Pear and citrus fruit with a creamy richness. Beautifully fragrant and intense but still so fresh on the finish. Long too. (JH)
The 2015 Louro always contains some 8% Treixadura while still maintaining Godello as the main grapes. It's sourced from their own vineyards in the municipality of O Bolo averaging 20 years of age. The grapes had a short maceration in the press and the clean must is transferred to 3,000-liter French oak vats where it ferments without any added yeast. The wine matured in these same containers with the fine lees for four months. He has a 9,000-meter plot of Treixadura, which adds freshness, especially in the warm vintage. There is an extra degree of precision and freshness compared with the 2015 Bolo, and intensity too. The flavors are clean and very focused, persistent thanks to the pungent acidity. It stays in your taste buds for a long time. This is a superb showing for this bottling. Killer value too! 85,000 bottles produced.
