Cellar for up to 7 years. No need to decant before serving.
This unusual red is crafted from 100 year old Garnacha Tintorera vines grown on the Lopez family’s vineyards in A Rua in the Valdeorras appellation in north-western Spain. The grapes are attentively harvested by hand and are fermented in cement tanks. The young wine is then matured in oak barrels for six months before bottling.
On the nose there are enchanting hints of crushed berries, dried herbs and toasted wood while the first sip reveals a medium body, bright freshness and smooth tannins. Ripe dark fruit flavours linger on the palate ending in a pure, clean finish with subtle spiced hints from the barrel maturation. The delicious fruit-forward flavour profile makes it a great match for tomato-based pasta dishes, roast pork or even pizza.
A Coroa is one of Galicia’s oldest wineries and focuses on producing delicious and inspiring wines from classic local varieties. For four generations the Lopez Vicente family have been growing vines here, although it wasn’t until 2002 that they decided to start making and bottling their own wines. In total they have 10 hectares of prime vineyards set at an altitude of around 450 metres above sea level.

A Coroa Ladeira Vella 2016
overall i had a positive experience, they have a wide range of wines, some which are hard to find anywhere else - the main reason i still buy from them, plus the discounts are fair and often, but... their codes for the first offer only works at the first offer, which if fine, but then why would you send me the voucher in each package i order, why spam me on the email and every time i log in on the website? this is really bothering me... then their rewards points system is useless, first of all because you only get peanuts even after spending €250 on an order, but even those peanuts will expire if you won't order again soon, which is unfair, to say the least... and lastly, if you get a corked wine, a wine with any deffect or a wine that leaked (my last order contained a bottle of $100 Caymus Cabernet with a leaking cork, which made the wine tasted cooked and flat), they have no procedure put in place for you to replace or return the wine or to get a refund or replacement - none, which is a big no no no for any wine collector... so all in all i give it 3 stars for now
