Hailing from the granite-rich soils of the Val do Salnés in Rías Baixas, Spain, this 2024 vintage is a quintessential expression of Atlantic-influenced Albariño. Crafted by the renowned Eulogio Pomares for Fento Wines, the grapes are hand-harvested from vines aged between 15 and 25 years to ensure maximum aromatic purity and freshness. The wine presents a bright straw yellow colour with youthful greenish glints. On the nose, it is highly fragrant, offering a vibrant bouquet of lemon zest, crisp pear and passion fruit, underpinned by a delicate hint of wild fennel. The palate is light yet intense, balancing a refreshing mineral acidity with juicy stone fruit flavours and a subtle, signature touch of Atlantic salinity on the finish. This elegant white is a natural partner for fresh seafood, particularly oysters and grilled sardines, as well as spicy Asian cuisine or summer salads. Produced through sustainable viticulture, it continues the estate’s tradition of delivering top-tier quality that frequently earns high praise and 90 plus point scores from international critics.
