The grapes selected for Leira Pondal come from plots found in the vineyards of El Rañado, Torre and El Alto. These are higher altitude vineyards with less humidity, more ventilation and a greater temperature variation between day and night. As a result, we obtain grapes with slower maturation and wines with greater aromatic intensity and acidity, which are lighter and fresh on the palate.
Aromatic nose with orange blossom and herbs before a balanced palate incorporating the salty freshness found from this region.

Why we love this:

This is text book Albarino, full of character and drinkability. The salty freshness makes it very moreish.
