If there is one wine that is different in the Algueira portfolio, it is the 2012 Merenzao, a pale red produced with Merenzao, the grape known in Jura as Trousseau (or Maria Ordo?a in Galicia and Bastardo in other parts of Galicia and Portugal). As with all their reds, the full clusters were foot trodden in open, 600 liter oak barrels with indigenous yeast and transferred to barrique for malolactic and 11 months aging after fermentation. It's a very pale, translucent ruby color and an explosive, intoxicating nose of dried roses and wild herbs, touches of very ripe red berries but distilling freshness. The palate is light, ethereal with great balance, ultra-fine tannins and good acidity, supple, tasty and long. Superb! 2,100 bottles.
