More about this wine
More about this wine
Albamar Albariño is a white wine produced in the Rías Baixas DO by the Albamar family winery, run by Xurxo Alba since 2006. Located in the subzone of O Salnés, this winery stands out for its focus on Albariño. This wine is made from 100% Albariño from plots near the Ría de Arosa, planted in mostly sandy soils, which adds a distinctive mineral touch. The vines are between 25 and 40 years old, organically farmed and harvested by hand to preserve the freshness of the fruit.
Winemaking
Albamar Albariño is made by direct pressing of whole bunches and ferments spontaneously with native yeasts at a controlled temperature. Fermentation is partially carried out in stainless steel and in neutral oak barrels to maintain freshness without adding wood flavours. After fermentation, the wine rests on its lees for approximately five months, allowing for greater expression of the varietal characteristics of the Albariño grape. Bottling is carried out with light filtration and low sulphite content.
