* Please note that because there is limited stock of this wine it is not subject to any further discount. 

Grapes are sourced from different terroirs throughout the Galician town of Doade; but the name of the town is protected by the Ribeira Sacra DO, so “Doad” was born. Predominantly Mencia but a field blend of local varitals makes up the rest. Aged for 12 months in a mix of 500, 300 & 228 Litre barrels. A new cuvee from the ever sought after Envinate crew.

Notes on the producer

Envínate (aka wine-yourself) is the brainchild of Laura Ramos, Jose Martínez, Roberto Santana and Alfonso Torrente, four friends who met while studying oenology at the University of Miguel Hernández in Alicante. They focus on exploring the ancient, Atlantic-influenced terruños of Ribeira Sacra, The Canary Islands and Almansa. Their philosophy is simple: let each parcel fully express itself through traditional farming and wine-making methods. Right now there are four different projects under the Envínate umbrella: Lousas overseen by Alfonso Torrente in Ribeira Sacra, Táganan and Benje by Roberto Santana in Tenerife, and Albahra in Almansa by Laura Ramos and José Martínez. These are some very unique and special wines, and some are only made in tiny quantities, so grab them while you can!
