Envinate 'Lousas' Vina de Aldea, Galicia, Spain 2022 Jumilla nutmeg and spicesThe bottled 2022 Lousas Vias de Aldea is aromatic, extroverted, open and immediate, floral, perfumed and expressive, with a juicy and round palate. It's fleshy and round, still with 12. 5% alcohol on the label but possibly a tad riper than the 2023 sample I tasted next to it. It's a very approachable vintage for this cuve. 25,200 bottles and 360 magnums produced. It was bottled in November 2023. 93+ Pts Luis Gutierrez, Robert Parker
