Treixadura

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.

Treixadura from the Avia Valley accounts for fifty-five percent of the blend, with forty-five percent Albariño from Valeixe and Melgaço. Yellow apple, citrus, fresh herbs and white flowers define the profile. The palate has good acidity, and the finish is long, savoury and intense. The grapes grow in granitic soils with varying amounts of decomposed sand. Alcohol is thirteen and a half percent.
