Description

The Formigo is a deliciously refreshing blend of Treixadura, Godello and Palomino from Ribeiro in Galicia. The wine has an impeccable balance of ripe citrus fruits, a slight grassy freshness and beautifully poised acidity.  This is a wonderful aperitif but is also custom built to match all manner of shellfish dishes. 


Manuel Formigo set himself up as a Colleiteiro in 2006 and is therefore formally recognised as a small grower.  Colleiteiros are limited to producing 60,000 litres of wine which must all be from their own vineyards.  Manuel owns 6 hectares of vines spread over 7 plots in the inland region of Ribeiro and is passionate about growing indigenous varities to Galicia.

2020 Palomino Castillo de San Diego, Barbadillo, Cadiz

Palomino

The Barbadillo Palomino Castillo de San Diego is crisp, fresh and unfortified!  This dry, refreshing white is a great example of the Sherry regions principle grape variety.  The wine is perfect spring/summer quaffing and a great stepping stone to appreciating the more complex, fortified and solera aged versions from DO Jerez.
