Terras Gauda O Rosal 2023

Description

GRAPE VARIETIES

Albariño, Caíño and Loureiro

TASTING NOTES

The flagship wine from the leading producer in Spain’s O Rosal Valley is an artful blend of Albariño, Caíño and Loureiro. Hailing from the most southerly part of Rías Baixas, just across the River Miño from neighbouring Portugal, Terras Guada O Rosal clearly takes influence from both sides of the valley. Pulling the cork on this, you’ll discover all the fruity and floral notes of a Spanish Albariño combined with the laser-like acidity and herby character of a Portuguese Vinho Verde – it’s the taste of summer holidays.

Lemon curd, lime zest, pink grapefruit juice, crunchy peach, Granny Smith apple, mandarin peel, orange blossom, jasmine, passionfruit, kiwi, bay leaf, dried mint, and just a hint of salinity like caper brine.

FOOD PAIRING

This wine is calling out for seafood: oysters, shrimp, crab, white anchovies, or barbequed sardines. Alternatively, pair with creamy dishes or something with a kick of chilli.
