Straw yellow, with a greenish hue. Aromatically of medium-high intensity with notes of stone fruit, white fruits and syrup. The good acidity in the mouth refreshes the fruity notes. Sweet, long and balanced.

The Barros family has grown Albarino grapes since the 1970’s. José Barros planted 10ha of vines, which at that time was one of the most decisive commitments to the Albarino variety as well as one of the largest vineyards in Galicia. The winery was founded under the name Maior de Mendoza. Although, these days, it is one of the references of the Rías Baixas Denomination of Origin, Maior de Mendoza holds on to its family business roots, values and passion for the Albarino variety. This is the commitment of the technical staff led by Cristina Mantilla, one of the most important oenologists in the country.

Vineyard located in the Valle del Salnés subzone, within the “Rías Baixas” Denomination of Origin, planted on a gently sloping hillside, very close to the Atlantic Ocean.

Grapes were collected in 20 kg boxes; and stored in a refrigerated lorry whilst inside the vineyard and immediately transported to the Wine Cellar where cold pelicular maceration was applied on an average of 5 hours.
