Description

100% Albariño from 8 of Alberto and Silvia’s parcels in Cambados and Portas: Soverribas, Praeira (Facho), Tomada de Juana, Albarellos, Senra, Gandarela, Freixido, and Monte Xago. The vines range in age from 15 to 45 years and the plots are largely east-facing and planted on a mix of decomposed granitic soils and sandy loam. The grapes were harvested by hand, sorted, and gently pressed without destemming in whole-bunches using a pneumatic press. The juice ferments with its native yeasts in used French oak barrels, then rests on the lees for 9 months, with weekly batonnage for the first month.
