 Bernardo Estevez "Bernardo Estevez is all biodynamic and handcrafts his wines from native varietals, the Issue is a field blend of Lado, Treixadura, Godello, Albarino and Caino Blanco y Silveirina grapes fermented naturally with indigenous yeasts and very low sulfur in true artisan fashion. The result here with Bernardo’s 2012 Issue Ribeiro Blanco is a wonderfully textured wine with vitality of energy, focus and gorgeous mouthfeel on par with top white Burgundies in class, but true to it’s own terroir, similar to the fine examples made by Luis Rodriguez from the same region. In this past year, I must say Galicia, especially Rias Baixas, Ribeiro and the Ribeira Sarca, is the most exciting wine region on earth right now for both whites and reds with amazing Mencia(s) that can rival the best from both the northern Rhone and or Burgundy at a fraction of the price...This is a name to watch for!" - Kerry Winslow.
