Lagar de Cervera
With a distinctly Atlantic profile, the warm and wet winter encouraged early budbreak in mid-March. The spring, rainy and unstable, led to balanced vegetative growth, although flowering was somewhat affected by coulure, resulting in minor losses. The summer was mild, with intermittent rainfall throughout the growing cycle, allowing for gradual and complete ripening. Despite the occasional rainy days typical of Rías Baixas, the harvest concluded with grapes of excellent quality.
100% Albariño grapes from our vineyards in O Rosal and Cambados (D.O. Rias Baixas).
The grapes were chilled before undergoing gentle pressing in an inert environment. The musts were settled by static racking and then fermented at controlled temperatures to preserve the Albariño’s varietal freshness. Due to the excellent balance of the musts, we chose not to perform malolactic fermentation, thereby maintaining the vibrant natural acidity of this vintage. The wine remained on fine lees, with periodic bâtonnage to add texture, volume, and complexity — without compromising any of its freshness.
Clean and bright with a greenish-yellow hue. The nose is pure and fragrant, with aromas of white fruit — such as apple and pear — along with floral and citrus notes typical of Albariño. On the palate, it is intense, fresh, and well-balanced, with a persistent, saline-accented finish.
Perfect to enjoy with any appetiser. It is the ideal companion to seafood and fish, as well as salads, fish rice dishes, fowl, and fresh cheese. Ideal in combination with Asian dishes, for example, with sushi or sashimi.
