Luis Anxo Rodriguez Vázquez, Ribeiro (Galicia, Spain) 2016

 Luis Anxo Rodriguez Vázquez has at least two things working against him, his size and location.  He has just over 12 acres spread over 100 tiny plots in the rather obscure DO of Ribeiro.  What he has going for him is the ability to make excellent wine.  The Ribeiro is a tiny DO in Galicia previously focused on bulk wines, but now producing note-worthy whites made from blends of local varieties, such as Treixadura, Lado, and Loureiro, to name just three, that are worth searching for.  This Eidos Ermos delivers delicate white flower notes buttressed by refreshing and mouth-cleansing acidity.
