The wine region of Ribeira Sacra

Galician DO of heroic viticulture on the vertiginous slopes of the Miño and Sil canyons, terraces among Europe's steepest. Mencía signature Atlantic red: fine and fresh with signature notes of raspberry, sour cherry, violet, fresh herbs, black pepper and slate mineral touch, delicate tannins and lively acidity — drinkable and elegant, a world away from warm Spanish reds. Taut Godello and saline Albariño in whites. Atlantic climate, schistous soils.


The wine region of Galice

Oceanic northwest Spain, cradle of the great Iberian whites. Signature Albarino of Rias Baixas: lively, saline whites with signature notes of citrus, white peach, white flowers, fresh almond and iodine minerality, a taut palate — a perfect match for Atlantic seafood. Also premium Godello (pear, citrus, butter), aromatic Treixadura. Supple Mencia reds (raspberry, herbs, graphite).

The word of the wine: Grafting

A method used since the phylloxera crisis, consisting of fixing a graft of local origin on a rootstock resistant to phylloxera.
