"The vibrant 2020 Leirana was produced with a blend of 60% wine matured in used oak foudre and the rest stainless steel, as the wine has very high acidity (9 to 9.5 grams with a pH of 2.99!) and doesn't go through malolactic; so, it is very sharp, and the higher percentage of oak makes it a little rounder. It's powerful and pungent, serious and with granite minerality, showcasing the serious style of the whites from 2020. It has moderate alcohol (12.9%) and an electric palate that is clean and tasty, with a stony finish. 30,000 bottles produced. There are two lots that are not identifiable, the first of which was filled in March 2021, the second one in July." -Robert Parker

"Light-bodied but intense and focused, this white delivers white flower, chalky and briny notes and a core of peach and lime. Drink now."

"Aromas of passion fruit and pineapple lead the way for flavors of pineapple, grapefruit, peach and rose petal. Light straw to the eye, this wine has well-integrated acidity and a soft floral note on the finish. Olé & Obrigado."
