Selected small vineyards around the winery, in Salnes Valley, in the heart of the Rías Baixas appellation (in Galicia - Northwestern Spain). The soil is granite, quite rich in quartz but poor in organic components, with a sandy texture. The vines are 20 to 25 years old, grown mostly in the traditional pergola system. All processes, from vineyard to winery, are focused to extract the maximum quality of this highly concentrated grape.
Albarino has become a real hit with wine lovers who want a thoroughly crisp white, with a touch of weight and ample ocean freshness. The best come from Rías Baixas, in northwest Spain. Here, its green rolling hills aren't far from the Atlantic. Stony-fresh and citrusy, Pazo Cilleiro is from the very heartland of the region, Val do Salnes. Its mosaic of tiny vineyards are hard to navigate for outsiders, but not for local winemaker Pepe Rodriguez (known in Spain as the ‘father of modern Albarino’). He knows exactly where to find the best grapes, all hand-harvested and the juice cool fermented, so the wine is beautifully fresh with bright citrus and peach aromas, and white blossom hints. Superb, well chilled, with seafood or paella.
