SINGLE PLOT
Wine from a single plot, located in the Bibei Valley – Santa Cruz do Bolo.
This is a lot planted in terraces in 1978, with an original Godello clone of very low vigor and from which a massive selection was made for the reproduction of plant material for the new plantings of the property.
Its southwest orientation, at an altitude of 710 meters, is open to the northern slopes of the Bibei Valley, receiving a permanent breeze that defines its dual character, between maturity and freshness. Its granitic soil is distinguished by its fine sands with quartz schists. This particularity gives this wine its marked saline character and its sapid and horizontal minerality.
It is cultivated in a traditional way with animal traction and applying the methods of biodynamic agriculture, as well as pruning and harvesting, which are carried out according to the lunar calendar.
Fermentation in 500 liter barrels and aging for 8 months.
TASTING: “It has great elegance and marked aromas of tangerine peel and magnolia flowers, very subtle and elegant with a pleasant minerality. Not only is its elegance on the palate superb, but it also has great acidity and amazing balance; it is ethereal, but at the same time powerful, “an iron fist in a velvet glove” with the electric minerality of granite. He is world class, perhaps the best Spanish white of the modern era”.
