2021 Bodegas Albamar, 69 Arrobas Albarino, Rias Baixas, Galicia, Spain
$63.00
A very special and limited project that Xurxo makes with some of his older vines (around 50-100+ years) that are grown organically over granite soils from 5 small parcels. All of the grapes are harvested by hand, with direct press and spontaneous fermentation in stainless steel followed by over a year aging sur lie in stainless steel. Bottled unfined, unfiltered, with very minimal s02 at bottling. Subtle and nuanced on the nose at first, as it opens you find loads of ripe lemon, stone fruits, with a core of tangy minerality keeping things refreshing. Decanting is recommended. Only 1,000L of this wine is produced (equivalent to 69 arrobas, an old unit of measure, hence thename of this wine).
