Product Description
Details

The only Spanish red wine produced by bodega Noelia Bebelia, Noelia Bebelia Preguiceiro has the deeply Atlantic character which characterizes Galician red wines and separates them from most red wines produced in Spain.

Produced in the Soutomaior area, the smallest subzone of DO Rías Baixas, this wine is made from a totally indigenous blend of Sousón, Caíño and Brancellao, three varieties grown in granite-sandy soils on the slopes of the Verdugo river.

Hand-harvested on site, the grapes were gently pressed to obtain the free-run must. After that, this red wine aged on lees was fermented in stainless steel tanks under controlled temperature for 12 days.

After finishing the process, Noelia Bebelia Preguiceiro 2020 was aged for 4 months in the tanks before being bottled.

Pair this red wine from Rías Baixas with meat recipes, pasta and hearty rice dishes.

Only 500 bottles produced.

This truly is what wine aficionados sometimes call a Unicorn wine.

Appearance

The red wine Noelia Bebelia Preguiceiro is deep ruby with a violet rim.

Nose

This blend of Caiño, Sousón and Brancellao is unconventional and expressive. Sour cherries and bitter herbs, with lively mineral notes and some citrusy and metallic remembrances.

Palate

This red wine from Noelia Bebelia is lively, racy and crisp, with some saline and mineral remembrances and a steely, linear acidity which cuts through the palate like a laser. Long finish with a note of red berries and bitter herbs.

Our personal opinion

An exquisite red wine from an unlikely area, Noelia Bebelia Preguiceiro 2020 is quite a find.

I give it 5 stars for its rarity and compelling originality. This is really in a class of its own, there are very few wines comparable to this one.
