Granbazán Don Álvaro de Bazán Albariño 2019

Produced from 100% estate-grown Albariño – cultivated in a single plot of the Finca Tremoedo vineyard in Vilanova de Arousa. Vines of average age approaching 40 years are pergola-trained in shallow granite soils. The grapes are hand-harvested into 17kg crates. After 12 hours contact with the skins, the free-run juice undergoes fermentation with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel. The wine is aged on fine lees for 36 months.  Grapes are sourced from the peak of Finca Tremoedo, the coolest part of the vineyard, just behind the winery building. Here the soil is shallow and granite-rich, producing a complex Albariño with the acidity and mineral structure of a wine capable of great ageing.

Exotic aromas with notes of pineapple and honeysuckle. The palate is gently rounded, with ripe tropical fruit and peach notes backed by appealing floral characters, subtle leesy notes, a hint of tangerine oil, and a long mineral finish.  This wine has extraordinary balance and complexity with a pure grapefruit character balanced with a saline finish. Hugely enjoyable but will reward ageing over 3-5 years.
