Note

Arrives June 2023

Organically grown grapes from the Valle del Salnés zone of Rías Baixas (Galicia).
12 hour skin maceration and fermentation on indigenous yeasts in stainless steel tanks. Aged 5 months on the fine lees and bottled with no fining or filtration. SO2 levels are less than 30mg/L, considered very low for whites from this or any region.
Golden straw color with a nose of ripe fruit, toasty notes of pastry and yeast lead into a wine with fresh forest aromatics, citrus. Quite dry and refreshing. Very poised and classy expression of this grape.
