Montecillo Singladuras Albariño

PRODUCTION AND AGEING

Vines cultivated in a privileged area of El Salnés, near to the town of Cambados and the Atlantic coast. Hand harvested vines grown on capricious pergolas, with an average age of 40 years, where the care and respect for the fruit of these vines is transferred to the rest of the winemaking process. Maceration with the skins in small tanks at a controlled temperature over 96 hours, prior to a gentle pressing and gentle fermentation at 16ºC over three weeks. Once the wine has been assembled, expert and delicate work with the lees takes place to give the wine depth and presence on the palate. A very noble grape variety that reaches its peak expression after three months rest in bottle prior to its release to market.
