A2O ALBARIÑO 2006 - RÍAS BAIXAS DO
This wine hails from Rias Baixas, in the North West corner of Spain - this is a very green, and wet, part of the country - a massive contrast to the hot, inland regions. This is pretty much the only place that you will find the indigenous Albariño grape. The cool climate is reflected in this wine, which shows the distinctive refreshing lemon charcter of this grape.
VINEYARD
Salnes Valley, Rias Baixas, Galicia, Spain. The vineyards face the Atlantic Ocean most visitors are surprised by the verdant vegetation of Galicia. The tiny vineyards (av. approx 0,5 hectares) are widely spread around the region, and are typified by the Pergola training system, which allows free circulation of air and helps prevent disease. The granite subsoils contribute to the mineral qualities of the wine
GRAPE VARIEITIES
100% Albariño
VINIFICATION
Slow, cool fermentation (13-14°C) in temp. controlled stainless steel tanks
TASTING NOTE
A wine full of cool climate freshness and firm acidity. This wine is fairly bursting with character; pear, citrus fruit, musky perfume and hints of mineral and spice.
Per Bottle £8.99
