DO Rías Baixas
Carallán
The most daring Albariño of the Rías Baixas floods us with its freshness and vitality
The Carallán Albariño is the result of the exclusive contribution of our old vines and their rest in the winery for 4 months on fine lees. For that, we use the best grapes of Albariño surrounding the cellar in a estate of 6 hectares of extension.
These wines come from autochthonous vines that adapt very well to the granite and clay soils, which combined with the microclimate of the area and ancestral coupages, make them unique.
The vineyard is located in A Almuiña, is oriented to the south and delimited by the Miño River. Its grounds are sandy enough to drain heavy rains.
