PRODUCTION

Fai un Sol de Carallo 2024 is a wine produced in the D.O. Ribeiro (northwest of Spain) with the triumvirate of great grapes of Galicia: Treixadura, Albariño and Godello. A wine made from a selection of grapes from vineyards located in the most favored socalcos or terraces of our vineyard planted in 1892 and have been developed entirely in 600 liters barrel, brought thoroughly from a tiny oak in Burgundy. After twelve months of aging in wood, the resulting wine has been refined in bottle until its marketing.

SENSORY AND VISUAL ANALYSIS

Tasting appearance: It has a nice clean yellow straw color with white gold trim.
Tasting nose: On the nose it displays a complex aromatic range, which starts with notes from its aging in wood (fine reminiscences of joinery and spicy). Later its touches of citrus (grapefruit and tangerine peel) seduce perfectly fused with scents of white fruits like pear and conference apple with floral contributions over a mineral and saline background that evokes the best character of Galicia.
Tasting palate: The palate is broad, complex and very oily at the entrance. It develops a long and elegant step, combining fruit and minerality with the own notes from its aging in barrel. The fragances of white and citrus fruits, well as the florals, invade all the subtle way. Long aftertaste that leaves a pleasant memory which invites to repeat.
