An elegant Albariño that truly captures the quality and unique expression of the variety in the region. Proximity to the Atlantic Ocean infuses the wine with a characteristic salinity to compliment its lively acidity, whilst the granite soils create incredible depth of flavour.
Albariño grapes from vineyards located within 8km in the sub-zone of Val do Salnés. Most vineyards are on hillsides facing the Ria de Arosa, very close to the Atlantic. Soils are predominantly granite; decomposed and crumbly at the surface, with rocky outcrops, providing excellent drainage. Vines are trained on traditional south-facing pergolas. Pruning allows greater leaf area which harnesses the suns ripening power, and raises the grapes away from the ground, reducing fungal disease, in what is a wet and humid region.
Tasting Note: Spicy yellow citrus, minerality and saline notes throughout. The palate is light and fresh with nectarine and nutmeg notes, yet offers underlying depth and texture.
Food match: Perfectly accompanies fish, shellfish, white meats and fresh cheeses.
