About

Dry white wine, biological ageing under the natural yeast membrane

Grape variety: 100% Godello

Varietal and vintage certified by ECCV

Altitude: 700 m

Soil: clay-limestone

Vineyard: 2,5 hectares, non-irrigated, located at high altitude in Siete Aguas (Avellán spot). Bush vines, dry farmed vineyards, harvested by hand. Sustainable viticulture

Winemaking: After a careful selection of the grapes, harvested by hand, they are very gently pressed to obtain the free-run juice. This must (“mosto flor) decants in a static way and ferments with the fine lees in stainless steel tanks. Once the fermentation is completed, the wine stays in one single barrel (500 liters) of French oak, where we leave some empty space for the yeasts to create the membrane. The wine rests under the veil for approximately one year prior to bottling.

13.5% vol. Production limited to 458 bottles.

Tasting notes: bright gold with straw yellow hues.

Hints of apple, yeast and dried fruits.

Intense and glyceric, full, with a certain saltiness and notes of bakery.

As the wine has not undergone aggressive filtration, natural sediments may appear.
