La Val Gran Añada ALBARINO 2020 6x75cl

A structured and age-worthy ALBARINO that shows the full potential of both grape and terroir. Aromas of ripe white fruit, laurel, citrus, floral and balsamic notes are complemented by lees and oak-derived nuances of vanilla and pastry. On the palate, ALBARINO's signature saline minerality and vibrant acidity are supported by the wine's immense texture and depth of flvaour. All the hallmarks of top-notch ALBARINO.

Vineyards

Grapes were hand-harvested in 20 kg cases to preserve fruit integrity.

Vintage

A combination of early vine development, low disease pressure and ideal harvest conditions resulted in fruit of excellent health and balance in 2020, rated 'very good' by the DO Rías Baixas. The vintage provided the necessary ripeness and structure to support extended ageing, perfect for the production of Gran Añada.

Winemaking

Grapes were cold-stabilised at 10 ºC before gentle pressing before spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts. The wine was aged for four years on its fine lees - partially in 500L and 600L French oak barrels and partially in stainless steel tanks - with the aim of achieving texture and complexity.
