Mixtura Wines | Spain | Galicië |
Vineyard | Made with treixadura and albariño from three different plots, each exposed to different climates. The treixadura comes exclusively from the Ribeiro area, hand-harvested in different vineyards at altitudes between 90 and 200 meters, with soils of sabrego (decomposed granite). Part of the albariño comes from a vineyard in Condado do Tea, the southernmost subzone of Rías Baixas, bordering Portugal. The vineyard is south-facing, located at an altitude of 400 meters, planted on sandy soils of decomposed granite, with an Atlantic climate warmer than the neighboring Salnés Valley subzone. The other part of the albariño for the blend comes from Melgaço, a village and sub-zone of the Portuguese Vinho Verde D.O. The soils here are also sandy decomposed granite and are influenced by a cool Atlantic climate. |

Vinification | Hand-harvested. Bunches are selected in the vineyard, with only ideal fruit selected for Mixtura.

The wine is then racked into concrete eggs, where it develops for 12 months. Bottled unfined and unfiltered, with minimal sulfur at bottling. |
