The 2007 Lapola exhibits a bit more austerity and higher acidity. It, too, has superb concentration, intense flavors, a vibrant personality, and a lengthy finish. Both wines should drink well for another 4-5 years, perhaps longer.
Tradition and respect for the past is what Dominio do Bibei, under the leadership of Javier Dominguez, seems to be all about. There is no stainless steel here, with cement and various sizes of wood utilized to contain the wine. There are approximately 100 acres of vines under cultivation, both red and white.
