Product Description
Details
This is the new vintage of Lagar da Condesa, produced by the Lagar da Condesa winery, a branch of Gil Family Estates.
This varietal Spanish white wine is made from Albariño vineyards situated in Val de Salnés, in the heart of DO Rías Baixas. The vines grow in soils made of sand and granite which have a very good water drainage, a crucial feature considering the abundance of rainfall in that Galician region.
Harvested and transported in little boxes, the grapes were selected, destemmed and cold-soaked before being crushed. Then the wine juice was transferred into stainless steel tanks and into 500-litre and 600-litre oak barrels, where Lagar da Condesa 2021 was fermented under controlled temperature.
Finally, this white wine aged on lees was aged for 4 months on lees to obtain a smoother, well-rounded wine.
Pair this white wine from Rías Baixas with shrimp, finger food, rice dishes and sushi.
