Ribeiro DO

Floral notes are joined by marmalade, honey and mature white fruit. The palate is broad, persistent and fresh, with the aromatic elements also present in the mouth. The wine is made entirely from Treixadura grown on the granitic soils known locally as sabrego in Ribeiro. It comes from Galicia in northwestern Spain and contains thirteen percent alcohol. Jasmine, white pepper and lychee are also present.

Greenish yellow with golden reflections, showing white fruit, apple, pear, floral and botanical notes over a mineral background. The palate is balanced, broad and unctuous, with a glyceric, persistent finish and a herbal aftertaste. Godello is hand harvested in eighteen-kilogram boxes in San Cibrao. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel at eighteen degrees, followed by four to six months on lees and maturation in tank. The sandy, granite-origin soils contain schist.
