2020 Bodegas Pazo de Galegos, Premium Selection, Rías Baixas, Spain
Regular price $25.00
Unit price per
100% Albariño
From Ole & Obrigado: Pazo de Galegos is located in Ribera de Ulla, one of the most sought-after of the 5 subzones in Rías Baixas. Pazo de Galegos is a small family property that produces less than 2,000 cases of wine per year, and which has lovingly maintained the original stone house and small shrine that welcomes pilgrims on the route to Santiago de Compostela, which is a short distance away. This wine is a textbook example of Albariño produced from old vines. The wine is made using only natural yeast to respect the flavors of its terroir.
Pale gold. Fresh peach, tangerine, melon and a hint of dusty minerals on the highly fragrant nose; a subtle hint of honey emerges slowly. Juicy and focused on the palate, offering ripe orchard and pit fruit flavors accented by a bitter citrus pith nuance. Dry and minerally on the finish, which shows very good lift, spicy cut, and strong persistence. Amazing with seafood!
