Production
Produced from 100% estate-grown Albariño - cultivated in a single plot of the Finca Tremoedo vineyard in Vilanova de Arousa. Vines of average age approaching 40 years are pergola-trained in shallow granite soils. The grapes are hand-harvested into 17kg crates. After 12 hours contact with the skins, the free-run juice undergoes fermentation with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel. The wine is aged on fine lees for 36 months.
Tasting notes
Exotic aromas with notes of pineapple and honeysuckle. The palate is gently rounded, with ripe tropical fruit and peach notes backed by appealing floral characters, subtle leesy notes, a hint of tangerine oil, and a long mineral finish. As in other parts of Europe the 2018 vintage was very warm, and as a result this wine is a stage riper than expected, with a marked tropical / pineapple nose - but still just 13% and with refreshing acidity.
