Raul Perez Ultreia Rapolao Mencia 2021 Barton & Guestier volume and very good acidityThe 2021 Ultreia Rapolao aged exclusively in a 1,000 liter oak foudre that was used before for a white wine and seems to have marked the wine with abundant toasty notes and a spicy twist, with notes of toasted sesame seeds even if the wine only spent 10 months in wood. It has medium ripeness, moderate alcohol (13%) and a medium bodied palate with a tender mouthfeel and oak related flavors in the finish. Is it going to digest the oak nicely? 1,200
