Os Bidueiros | Peixes
The new Village wine from Peixes is named after "bidueiros, the Gallego word for birch trees which you find in the area. It has a distinct perfume from their other wines, perhaps because the climate is warmer than Viana do Bolo and the soils are granite - Os Bidueiros is darker, a little more serious, more structured and concentrated, perhaps with a little more Mediterranean herbs - or could it be from the Sumoll?
