The second vintage of Fai un Sol de Carallo, the 2014, is ready to start its marketing on February 29th. As in previous harvests and because Bodegas El Paraguas only bottled the fruits selected a particular settlement, the production is extremely limited, as only 780 bottles where produced. That privileged circulation was exhausted in the winery last October, handing the quota to our exclusive distributors in nine countries across three continents.
Unlike the previous vintage, the 2014 one has been aged for ten months in a new barrel of a higher capacity, 600 liters, although the same oak and Burgundian cooperage. Most notable in its organoleptic profile is the absence of botrytis cinerea in this crop, thereby losing the mellow touches that characterized Fai un Sol de Carallo; but wins in typicality, an aspect that Marcial Pita and Felicísimo Pereira were obsessively pursuing.
Fai un Sol de Carallo 2014 is a wine conceived in the DO Ribeiro with the triumvirate of great Galician indigenous grapes: the Treixadura, Albariño and Godello. A wine made from a selection of grapes from vines located in socalcos or most favored patches of a vineyard planted in 1892 and have been prepared in full in a 600 liter barrel terraces.
PVP: Between 60 and 70 € in wine shops and specialty stores.
