Originally conceived as great wine that expresses the true potential of the albariño grape and captures the essence of the Pazo de Barrantes estate.
Winemaker notes
A wide nuanced nose with ripe yellow plum and medlar fruit, subtle notes of bergamot and verbena underpinned by a fine balsamic background. Vibrant palate, well-balanced, fresh and textured. It shows a long and splendid finish. “A deep and full of nuances vintage that confirms the path began in 2019” María Vargas, Technical Director.
2020
James Suckling 95: Focused, ripe, mineral and intense, with lemon rind, stones and sea salt. Very tense and integrated, with tangy, bright acidity chiseled to the round, textured palate. An exceptional, transparent yet serious albarino here. Irresistible now. Drink on release or hold.
Falstaff 94: Pale golden yellow with silver reflections. Ripe yellow tropical fruit – papaya and mango – candied mandarin zest, a hint of pineapple and acacia honey. Full-bodied, with good complexity, taut and tight, racy acidity, lime notes and a salty minerality on the finish. Very precise and persistent, with lemony nuances in the aftertaste.
