Tasting Note
Bright, saline Albariño with white flowers, apricot and peach, citrus lift and a mineral/sea‑spray edge. Lees aging adds creamy mid‑palate texture, crisp acidity and a long, savory finish.

Food Pairing
Shellfish and oysters, seafood paella, grilled fish, ceviche, and light salads (Western); sushi, sashimi, tempura, Thai/Chinese seafood dishes, grilled octopus, and creamy Asian‑style fish curries.

Production Method
Hand‑harvested Albariño; fermentation with indigenous/controlled yeasts at cool temperature; aged ~6 months on fine lees with bâtonnage (≈25% in large oak foudres); light filtration before bottling.
