93pts James Suckling

A creamy, oaked Rias Baixas that has a subtle lemon curd and praline note to the white fruit, seashells and nori. Juicy, taut and bone-dry on the palate with a saline edge to the fruit and a tangy, mouthwatering finish. Vegan. Delicious now, but can hold, too.

93pts Wine Enthusiast

Medium straw-colored to the eye, this wine has a nose of green pear, white chocolate and crumbled sage. Flavors of pineapple, passion fruit, vanilla and jasmine skate into a floral-infused finish. 

91pts Wine Spectator

Creamy and light- to medium-bodied, this refreshing, well-knit white shows a kiss of oak spices accenting yellow apple and pear, almond skin, preserved lemon and a subtle streak of salinity that lingers on the finish. Drink now through 2026. 1,000 cases made, 200 cases imported.

Tasting Notes

Intense straw yellow, very bright and with ocher reflections. In the nose it is explosive, concentrated, with aromas of dehydrated stone fruit, dried figs, coffee, marzipan, brown glaze, slightly spicy, the product of its aging in barrels.

In the mouth it is marked acidity, nerve and freshness. Its body is medium, light, at the same time very tasty, dominating the salt from its midpoint in the mouth to its long finish.

Winemaker's Notes

The pioneer of oak-aged Albariños

This project began at the end of the 80s, when the first experiments with French oak barrels started. During the last harvests, the technique has been refined to achieve a wine with a perfect balance between wood and fruit. The grapes come from the highest part of the Tremoedo estate, with very low yields and small berries. Here we do intensive canopy management, in addition to a long maceration process, followed by at least 12 months on fine lees to increase the life of this wine.
