Paraje de Mina Albarino

Albariño from Alberto and Silvia’s Finca Paraje Mina vineyard, in Cambados. The west-facing vines are more than 30-years-old, and the soils are deep granitic sands. The grapes were harvested by hand, sorted, and gently pressed without destemming in whole-bunches using a pneumatic press. The juice ferments with its native yeasts in 500L stainless steel tank and a single 500L used French oak barrel, before resting on its lees for 9 months, with weekly batonnage for the first 3 months.
