Rey Campero Cuishe

Verdict

Rey Campero's cuishe is understated relative to the producer's better-known expressions – the jabalí is the brand's argument, and this bottle sits quietly next to it. It's a legitimate, well-made cuishe that suffers only by the comparison; at 48% from Candelaria Yegolé the karwinskii signature is intact and the mineral spine reads clearly. Consensus 3.6 reads fair. A side-bottle in a producer's lineup with louder main characters.

Tasting notes

Nose: Green pepper – then wet stone, damp leaf

Palate: Lean, herbal, with the cuishe's vegetal signature presented cleanly at 48%

Finish: Drying, cooling – long

The bottom line

A serviceable cuishe. The house has louder bottles
