Trasto Tinto 'Prieto Picudo' 2020
Noelia de Paz spent the beginning of the century benefitting from being amongst the family vineyards that her brothers planted in 1999, though her hometown region, D.O. Tierra de León, didn’t achieve D.O. status until 2007. It was there, during this time working in her family’s winery Bodegas Tampesta, that Noelia’s love and dedication for León’s native grape varieties, Albarín and Prieto Picudo, really flourished. Nose of poutpourri and boisenberry. Hints of frambois. Density and grip on the mid-palate, finish with medium bodied, chalky tannins that are matched with dark fruits and eucalyptus. The presence of Prieto Picudo is firm but gives way to juicy fruits. heavy potpourri and dried purple flowers.
