Verdict
Lamata Verde de la Sierra is a useful regional read from Nuevo León – Torres's cut stays consistent with his other Lamata releases, and the verde reads cleanly if less commanding than the Durango verdes in the catalog. Consensus 3.8; we rate 3.5.
Nuevo León verde is a terroir still introducing itself
Tasting notes
Nose: Green herb, then wet stone, cool mineral, a faint resin
Palate: Lean and green at 51%. Verde in Nuevo León runs a touch drier than Durango verde; Torres's production is clean, and the proof supports the structural work
Finish: Mineral, cool close, long
The bottom line
Buy for regional specificity
