Blanco Granito 2019
100% Albariño
Pazo Torre Penelas Blanco Granito 2019 is a profiled white wine with aromas of stone fruit, citrus notes and mineral touches. On the palate it is voluminous, fresh and expressive. A saline wine with a marked and well-integrated acidity. The finish is long and persistent.
Pazo Torre Penelas, the Familia Torres wine project in Rías Baixas, presents its first wine, baptized with the name Blanco Granito, from the 2019 vintage.
Blanco because it is an Albariño grown entirely in the pazo, and Granito because it is the first wine vinified and aged in granite deposits, the predominant and almost exclusive rock in the Galician denomination of origin. History and time in the strong granite walls of Pazo Torre Penelas, one of the oldest in the Salnés valley. The tower, hermitage and hórreos speak of a time of splendor, while the beautiful trellised vineyards that surround the complex show a deep-rooted winemaking vocation. Made 100% with grapes grown in the pazo. The wine ferments and remains on its lees for eight months in ovoid granite tanks. These unique containers enhance the most saline expression of Albariño while establishing a historical link with the ancestral winemaking of Roman times, when presses made of this stone were already used in this area.
