A Teixa 2012 by Luis A. Rodriguez (D.O. Ribeiro; treixadura, godello, albariño ) is simply a delight. Aromas of pineapple and fresh ginger are energetic, and the dollop of meringue whispers Yes I’m 6 years old and what of it? In the mid-palate there’s a melty-moo lemon drop decadence that could get out of hand, if not held in check by that passionfruit bitterness and bracing Seville orange acidity. The long finish is punctuated by lemongrass and white pepper. #arnoia #ribeiro #doribeiro #ateixa #vinosespañoles #vinosdegalicia #vinosgallegos #viñosgalegos #northwestspain
