Luis Seabra Mono C 2021
23.41₣ (Exc. VAT bot. 75 cl.) / Switzerland
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2021 Mono C is the only varietal Castelão from Douro. 'It's an allowed variety in Douro, but this comes from the only Castelão vineyard I know in the region,' Seabra told me. It has a paler color and a higher-pitched nose, with notes of red berries and spices, something earthy and a touch of rusticity. The palate is medium-bodied with some grainy tannins and freshness, a lighter Douro with less color and tannins. It fermented in concrete and matured in concrete and 2,500-liter Italian oak foudre. Some of the wines are not approved by the appellation, and this is one of them. With time in the glass, the balsamic note is more moderate, and it becomes more elegant and floral.
