A textured Albariño from Rías Baixas, with mandarin, peach and melon alongside a floral note. Citrus freshness and a saline edge give definition to the rounded fruit. O Casal is an expressive coastal white, particularly suited to fish and shellfish.

About Bodegas Boado Chaves

Xurxo Alba’s family has been farming and making Albariño in Rïas Baixas O Salnés region, near the Atlantic Ocean, for generations (Alba+mar). It wasn’t until Xurxo finished his oenology studies that the Alba family started bottling and commercializing their wines in 2006. The Alba family owns 2.5 hectares, and sources approximately 10 hectares throughout the region. Albamar is one of only a handful (2%!) of domaines in the region using natural yeasts for their fermentation, which has a dramatic impact on both the aromatics and flavour of albariño, giving the wines much more depth, complexity and interest.
