Description
Distinctly Ribeiro, this wonderful wine is elegant and fresh but with a lovely depth courtesy of the lees ageing. Honeyed and floral with great precision, this fabulous dry white has thirst quenching savoury notes on the long, balanced and classy finish.
Mauro Estevez is the third generation to take control of this fascinating winery in north-western Spain. Located an hour inland from Vigo and a mere 30 minutes drive from the Portuguese border, Bodega Mauro Estevez have just 2 hectares of vines spread over 16 different plots along the River Arnoia. All the plots are carefully tended by hand and all produce grapes with distinct character unique to the individual plot. The grape varieties are Treixadura, Godello, Albarino, Loureira and Lado, and are all harvested by hand and vinified seperately following harvest. A cold soak under dry ice prior to gentle pressing and temperature controlled fermentation contribute to the wonderful freshness in this wine. The wines rest on their lees for 7 months prior to bottling.
The Bodega produce a mere 10,000 – 12,000 bottles per year, the majority of which is sold domestically, with roughly 600 bottles coming to the UK annually
