Brilliant light gold in the glass, with crystalline clarity that reflects the careful vinification.<\/p>\n
A fascinating flavour profile unfolds: fresh pear<\/strong> and Grapefruit<\/strong> harmonise with Mediterranean herbal notes. The maritime origin is revealed by a subtle, salty sea breeze - a characteristic terroir feature of the Rias Baixas near the Atlantic.<\/p>\n The true class of this Albari\u00f1o is revealed here. After two years of ageing on the fine lees, the wine is impressively complex and profound. The initially striking acidity of the region has been elegantly integrated and now forms the perfect backbone for the intense flavour. The texture oscillates smoothly between silky and creamy - a result of the innovative ageing partly in steel and partly in granite tanks. Particularly noteworthy is the citric note of red grapefruit<\/strong>which gives the wine a refreshing liveliness and lingers for a long time.<\/p>\n This exceptional Albari\u00f1o comes from a tiny 0.5 hectare single vineyard in the prestigious Salnes Valley. The 60-year-old vines thrive on granite soils in traditional pergola training - a necessity given that the rainfall is twice as high as in Hamburg. Spontaneous fermentation and two years of ageing on the lees give the wine its remarkable complexity at a moderate 12.5% alcohol.<\/p>\n Its maritime elegance predestines it for Scallops<\/strong> and other seafood. It also harmonises wonderfully with Cress soup<\/strong> or other delicate vegetable dishes, where its minerality and freshness come into their own.<\/p>\n A prime example of how patience and traditional methods can refine an already excellent Albari\u00f1o to absolute top class. The combination of old vines, granite terroir and innovative vinification creates a wine of rare depth and elegance.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Palate<\/h3>\n
