Description
Fruit for the Lías Albariño is sourced from the 13-hectare Pé Redondo vineyard, situated 165 metres above sea level. This is 100 metres higher than the average altitude of Salnés vineyards, which in turn allows for slower maturation and later picking, giving the grapes greater complexity. Unlike a typical Albariño, a proportion of this wine was aged for 8 months on lees with bâtonnage for the first two months, lending silky mouthfeel. The wine was then matured for 10 months in stainless-steel tanks. The palate displays fine balance, with vivid acidity tempered by the wine’s creamy texture.
