Trial analysis
The colour shows some evolution notes. Not the typical dark Spanish red, thus.
Nice red cherry and berry notes, along with spices. Tasting blind, one would he site between Northern Rhône or Burgundy…
Straight on the palate, punchy, with a crisp acidity. A very long finish.
A typical fresh Atlantic-style red.

Reviews
R. Parker (93/100)

The characterful 2018 Alanda Tinto was produced with a blend of Mencía, Bastardo and Garnacha Tintorera from their vineyards with different soils (slate, sand and clay) in different parts within Monterrei. It fermented together with one-third full clusters in stainless steel and concrete and matured in barrique, stainless steel and concrete vats for 15 months; then it was blended and put back in stainless steel for one more year. It has very good freshness, purity of aroma and flavors and a medium-bodied palate, with moderate alcohol and very fine tannins.

Wine estate

A modest man, José Luis Mateo is yet considered by many as the only real good winemaker in the Monterrei appellation, and even the best of all Galicia.
He doesn't care about the accolades and scores he gets in the international wine press, working according to what he sees in his vines.

Description

Lousas is the workhorse of Envínate in Galicia. Their "village wine". Besides their top volcanic wines in Tenerife, they also have beautiful vineyards in Ribeira Sacra, located between 400 and 600 m altitude. The Lousas is the Spanish alternative to village wines from Burgundy, which today often cost many times as much as this Spaniard. All vineyards are in biodynamics.

Description

The Cobrana cuvée does not come from Valtuille, like the other wines of the estate, but from 6 parcels around the village of Cobrana, at some 700 metres above sea level. It is a field blend, with some 25% of white grapes - red and white grapes are pressed together. The soils are not sandy like in Valtuille, but made of slate and clay. Whereas the Valtuille wines show a distinctive Rhône-profile, the Cobrana is more similar to a Burgundy wine.
