This wine has a wonderful colour cherry red with a light violet rim. Complex and intense with a hint of Atlantic sea spray and bright red fruit. The palate is rich and pure driven by crushed red currant and a note of soft honey. There is plenty of minerality and delicate salinity. Drink or keep for a few years.

Delivery Information
Fermented and macerated for 90 days without pumping, the grapes macerate by dilution, malolactic fermentation with the pomace. After 90 days, it is pressed and transferred to stainless steel tanks where it will remain, with successive racking, until bottling. Only yeasts and natural lactic bacteria are used, it is not filtered or clarified. The only added product is sulfur in low quantities.
Eleven hectares of cultivated terrace, with a south-facing orientation, 80% slope, and the vineyard is bathed along its lower bound by the Sil river. These conditions, combined with the characteristics of the soil (slate and sandstone, well drained) and a perfect climate, provide excellent grounds for splendid wine that captivates palates. The vines, belonging to Mencía, Alvarello, Caíño and Sousón varieties, are older than 24 years. They have a maximum production of two kilos per vine. They are the greatest asset of the winery. Approximately 50,000 kilos of grapes are produced each year. The vineyard is not fertilized or irrigated: the vines grow in extreme conditions where they self-regulate. This makes every year’s production have different characteristics.
