The 2019 As Caborcas is a single-vineyard red from Valdeorras produced with Mencía, Merenzao, Sousón, Garnacha, Godello, Brencellao and other grapes from 80+-year-old vines on granite terraces of the Bibei River. It fermented in small oak and stainless steel vats and had a soft élevage in 1,500- and 2,000-liter foudres for 15 months. This vintage of As Caborcas feels very precise, balanced, clean and fresh, elegant and complex, juicy and tasty, with very fine tannins and a long aftertaste. It has to be among the finest vintages of As Caborcas. 1,891 bottles were filled in June 2021. Drink 2022-2029.
