- This wine is a great example of Treixadura. It has lively scents of lemon curd, apricot, white flowers, and herbal notes. The taste is full and textured, with juicy apricot and white peach flavours balanced by hints of blood orange, lemon, and grapefruit peel. The grapes were carefully selected in the vineyard. They were cooled and pressed with a pneumatic press under temperature-controlled conditions. The musts were separated and naturally clarified. Fermentation occurred at low temperatures and remained on the lees for four months, during which regular stirring imparted complexity and texture to the wine. The wine rested in stainless steel vats for several months until bottling occurred on Flower Day the following summer.

This Treixadura wine offers a rich and intricate blend of aromas, including zesty lemon curd, luscious apricots, delicate white flowers, and herbal notes. Its full-bodied and textured profile reveals juicy apricot and white peach flavours, harmoniously complemented by the tangy essence of blood orange, lemon, and grapefruit peel.

| Winery | The grapes come from parcels in estate vineyards in the Avia River Valley, located in the D.O. Ribeiro within the Galicia region of Spain. The D.O. is between the Rias Baixas to the west and Ribeira Sacra to the east. The grapes for this wine come from the municipalities of A Xarmenta en San Cristobal and Pazo Lodeiro in San Fiz Do Varan. The vines are planted on a combination of terraced plots known as zocalos and sloped plots orientated to maximize exposure to the sun. The soils in the region are granitic sands, known locally as sabrego, which warm up quickly and retain the heat. The Atlantic Ocean greatly influences the region, which has relatively high rainfall and humidity, although its inland location shelters it from the impact of Atlantic storms. High sunshine allows the grapes to reach excellent maturity levels; however, the characteristic high acidity from the cooler influences results in wines of great balance. The grapes are hand-harvested at optimal maturity. |
