- An intense and mouth-filling blend highlighting funky notes of violet, black fruits, figs, and plums, combined with mineral overtones, leads to a long and robust finish. This layered fragrant blend highlights notes of violet, blackberry, redcurrant, and plums, combined with subtle hints of black pepper and mineral tones. Elegant and expansive on the palate, it offers concentrated fruit and fine tannins with a balancing freshness. The rich yet vibrant finish is wonderfully intense and long.
This wine is from the DO Ribeiro, which means River Bank in Galician, as it is located along the Milo River and its tributaries in Galicia, North West Spain. The vineyards are planted on steep slopes at 150 to 300 metres' elevation, surrounded by stone walls, and are the last to be harvested. A blend of indigenous varieties, the vines range from 50 to 70 years old. These low-yielding vines produce wines with fine tannins and excellent fruit intensity. Planted at an altitude of 150 to 350 metres above sea level, the vines are free-standing and trained with a stake in the traditional manner at a density of 1.25 x 1.25 metres. The soils are clay with schist, imparting mineral tones to the wine. The 35% of 'other grapes' in the blend is a field blend of Ferrol, Souson, Brancellao, Bastardo

| Winery | Winemaker Xose Lois Sebio has produced this stunning eponymous collection of wines for a personal quest: to find wines with unique personalities from more risky processing zones and a very marked identity. This original and quirky range is made from high-quality grapes in areas that are often neglected or simply different; vineyards are difficult to farm due to the high costs of conventional viticulture. Aside from fashions and conventions, the sole intention is to respect and express the soil, variety, and area, producing wines with soul and personality. The wines are vinified with minimal intervention and low sulfur. These are collectable wines for lovers of authenticity and variety. |
