2015 Mauro Estevez Uxia da Ponte Lado

This is it - the world`s only single varietal bottling of the Lado grape variety, a little-grown grape from the river valleys of Ribeiro. Of all his vines, Mauro Estevez is especially proud of the Lado - some of the vines are a hundred years old. Pure, fresh, floral and unoaked, with an impressive finish - well worth getting to know even if you are not an ampelographical twitcher. (NT 09/04/18)
