Why do we love this wine?
‘Ámbar’ takes a massive step up in quality from their green (Verde) label. There’s more texture, intensity, length and elegance at play. The grapes come from a unique vineyard, planted on a particular sandy-granite soil that made the region famous. Lovingly hand-picked, these albariño bunches head to the winery for 12 hours of skin contact, building flavour and texture into the fermenting juice, then aged on lees for 8 months. With naturally high acidity, the granite soil amplifies the wine, imparting an electric energy, lifting the wine above and beyond. Texture just adds to the feel, built in by lees work enhancing a broader mouthfeel, balanced by freshness and an incredible drive. Wow.
