Flagship Albariño from parcels around Castrelo (Salnés), fermented with native yeasts and raised mostly in tank with a small portion in neutral foudre; no malolactic. Saline, citrus-led and finely mineral in 2024.
The vines come from many different plots, planted in sandy, granitic soils close to the Atlantic (in places 25m away). One of the very few albariño in the region to be made via natural, indigenous yeasts. There is acidity and freshness and this wine mixes a delicious mineral vibration with a dense core of fruit with a marked salinity on the finish. This takes albariño to the next level and proves it can be a serious wine rather than just the "holiday favourite".
