The red 2015 A Portela was produced with Mencía grapes matured in French oak barrels for eight months and 20 more months in stainless steel, plus one more year in bottle. So, they offer this red almost five years after the harvest, which means the wine is developed and polished. It's quite ripe and time has given it more tertiary aromas, meaty and smoky with a hint of soy sauce, and the palate is round and juicy and combines ripe flavors with some acid berries that give it a bit of a spark. It goes more in the direction of a Northern Rh?ne than a Burgundy. 20,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in March 2018.
