Using 25 year-old vine fruit from their estate, Vina Cartin crafts this delicious, slightly creamy Albarino. Hand-selection, gentle de-stemming, and modern winery practices are the reasons behind the purity of the fruit presented in the bottle.
The winery of Vina Cartin lies in the Salnes Valley, in the Rias Baixas sub-region of the same name. Being the coolest and dampest of the zones, Cartin must assiduously care for their fruit both in the vineyard and at the winery. They farm their 7.1 hectares of land naturally, and with low-yields in mind.
North of Portugal, on Spain's eastern seaboard, sits the Galician Coast. Heavily influenced by the Atlantic Ocean's weather pattern, the wine producing region here (known as Rias Baixas) tends to farm using trellises that allow for maximum airflow to keep the fruit well ventilated (preventing fungus and rot.) The main grape here is the Albarino, a thick-skinned grape resistant to mildew, and making for some lively, fresh wines of character.
