Luis Pato 'Rebel' 2015 Review
Rebellious indeed is this Baga-based blend, with quite a bit of earth and rusticity throughout. It smells of dark, almost prune-like fruit, with wild garrigue and wilting floral tones. The palate is brighter and spicier, smoked meat notes sitting alongside tart cherry fruit and grippy tannins. While intriguing, don’t expect refinement.
