Description
Still white wine from Galicia, Spain, 12% ABV, produced by Alberto Nanclares and Silvia Prieto. 100% Albariño, 2022 vintage. A wine born from a passion for Albariño, grown on vineyards over 30 years old, with an approach that prioritizes minimal intervention and the expression of the terroir. The grapes are hand-selected in the vineyards. They are transported quickly to the winery in 15-kg crates. The grapes are not destemmed before entering a pneumatic press for low-pressure pressing. Fermented with its own yeasts and aged on the lees in a 14-year-old 2200-liter French oak barrel for 11 months, with batonage. Bottled with moderate sulfur levels and without fining. Aged in bottle for 5 months. Reminiscent of tropical fruits, such as pineapple, mango, and papaya, followed by citrus and chalky/mineral notes. Full-bodied on the palate, it is in line with the nose: fresh, fruity, savoury and persistent.

We grow our vines according to the principles of minimum intervention, seeking biological balance in the plant, which enables the terroir to express itself.
We fertilize our vineyards with compost made from grape pomace and algae that we collect in the Ría de Arousa, which essentially provide trace elements, minerals and antibiotics which improve the plant’s resistance to disease.
It is essential to have controlled yields and perfectly mature grapes to enable the wines to express the minerality and salinity of our land. We carry out “green harvesting” to help the bunches of grapes to reach optimal maturity – removing vegetation (leaf thinning), eliminating those grape clusters which are not going to ripen properly (cluster thinning) and removing unsuitable grapes (pre-harvesting).
