Tasting Note

The nose of the 2022 A Cesteira is peachy and elegant, clean, precise, subtle and harmonious, very young but with incipient complexity. It unfurls more layers of aromas with time in the glass, herbs and moss, quite spectacular. The palate is powerful but terrifically balanced, with pungent flavours, intense and persistent. It has a velvety palate, fine-grained and harmonious, balanced and long, very elegant and subtle. - Luis Gutierrez, Robert Parker Wine Advocate 96/100
