The more austere red 2021 Xabrega Tinto has a subtler nose, with elegant notes of berry fruit, herbs and earth, nuanced and layered. The palate is seamless and balanced, with rich and deep flavors and a nice texture with fine-grained, sandy tannins. It was produced with Mencía and 10% other varieties, fermented with 50% full clusters in concrete and matured in barrel for nine months. ... More details

Winery
Cherry red color, of medium intensity, clean and bright. Fine and elegant nose where aromas of red fruit and wild flowers stand out along with smoky notes, followed by memories of undergrowth on a mineral background. Mineral notes stand out in the mouth. It is velvety on the palate, intense and medium-bodied. Smoked and balsamic notes appear in the aftertaste.

Region: Galicia

Spain is one of Europe's most ideal wine producing countries, with a wide range of terroirs and ideal climatic conditions for cultivating a fantastic variety of grapevines. However, the region of Galicia suffered a dramatic fall from grace in the 19th century, due to economic downturns which led to vineyards being left untended, and wineries derelict. This was a tragic loss to the wine world, as Galicia had once been an important center for Spanish wine, and one which had considerable influence and popularity due to its excellent range of white and red blended wines. However, the 20th century saw Galician wine making undergo a rebirth, and today, thanks to years of hard work and dedication, Galician wines are back on the shelves, and attracting a lot of attention thanks to their stunning flavors and careful, balanced blends of native fine grape varietals.

Country: Spain

For over two thousand years, Spain has been responsible for much of Europe's wine production, making the very best of native grape varietals, and more recently experimenting with and perfecting wines made from imported grapes. Of course, the region of La Rioja is renowned world-wide for the quality and characteristics of its wines, which benefit greatly from the warm, dry continental climate of the area, and the fertile soils of the Ebro river basin. However, there is far more to Spanish produce than the complex, aromatic and earthy red wine of this region, as a result of the vast range of wine making traditions and practices, and terrains and climatic conditions found across the country. The region Castilla y Leon produces some of Europe's finest white wines, and the sparkling wines of Cava and the sherries of Jerez are firm favorites for wine lovers around the world.
