Why You'll Love It
Bright and mouthwatering, with a savoury edge that makes this more than a simple glass of Albariño. Lime peel and green apple lead into almond skin, herbs and a saline finish, while a little lees texture gives it substance. Pour with oysters, grilled prawns or a plate of simply cooked fish.
About The Producer
Adega do Vimbio is the small family estate of Martín Crusat and Patricia Elola in Goián, close to the Portuguese border in Galicia's lower Miño valley. Martín's family planted the first vines in 1985; the couple returned in 2012 after working abroad, bringing their backgrounds in biology and environmental science to the vineyard. Their 2.5 hectares contain Albariño, Caiño Blanco and Loureiro, with ground cover and careful hand work supporting biodiversity. They left the Rías Baixas appellation in 2020 to pursue a freer, low-intervention style. Vimbio takes its name from the willow traditionally used to tie vines.
Winemaking Information
An Albariño-led blend with Caiño Blanco and Loureiro from O Rosal in Galicia, bottled as Vino de España. The grapes are picked by hand and gently pressed, with wild-yeast fermentation in stainless steel. Ageing on the lees, with periodic stirring, adds texture while preserving the fresh fruit and savoury character. A light filtration and small sulphur addition precede bottling.
