What to Expect

Albariño is a grape indigenous to the border region that separates Spain from Portugal, where the grape is know as Alvarino. It produces a medium to light-bodied white wine that is rich with peach and citrus fruits while the aromas tend to the floral and slightly nutty end of the spectrum. The wines have bright acidity and an easy-drinking quality that has propelled them to new heights of popularity.

Winemakers Notes

Cold maceration is one of the pillars in the distinction of Granbazán wines. Collection is made by hand and in boxes, marking the beginning of the fermentation process of these elegant fruity wines. Maceration takes place between 5-7°C. The fermentation tanks are situated above the recipients of the must, meaning that the extracted must is done so only by means of gravity. Alcoholic fermentation takes place at low temperatures in stainless steel tanks over 1.5 months.
