Origin

The Albariño from Vizconde de Barrantes is produced in the Rías Baixas Denomination of Origin, located in the Galicia region of northwest Spain. This coastal area is known for its Atlantic climate, which provides cool temperatures and high humidity, ideal for cultivating the Albariño grape.

Variety

This wine is made exclusively from the Albariño grape variety, a native white grape of the Rías Baixas region renowned for its aromatic intensity and crisp acidity.

Production

The grapes are hand-harvested to ensure optimal ripeness and quality. After gentle pressing, the must undergoes controlled fermentation at low temperatures to preserve the fresh and fruity aromas characteristic of Albariño. The wine is typically aged briefly in stainless steel tanks to maintain its vibrant acidity and purity of flavor before bottling.

Tasting notes

  • Appearance: Pale straw yellow with greenish reflections.
  • Aroma: Intense and fresh, with notes of citrus fruits, green apple, white flowers, and hints of stone fruit.
  • Palate: Crisp and lively acidity balanced with a medium body, delivering flavors of lemon zest, peach, and a subtle mineral finish.
  • Finish: Clean and refreshing, with a lingering fruity aftertaste.

Food pairings

  • Seafood dishes such as grilled shrimp, oysters, and clams.
  • Light fish preparations including ceviche and baked white fish.
  • Fresh salads with citrus-based dressings.
  • Soft cheeses like goat cheese or fresh mozzarella.
  • Asian cuisine with mild spice, such as sushi or Thai salads.
